Oh, dude, in Walt Whitman's poem, the speaker basically peaces out from the boring lecture hall and heads outside to chill under the stars. Like, he's all about experiencing the wonders of the universe firsthand, not just listening to some nerdy astronomer drone on. So, yeah, he bounces to appreciate the beauty of the night sky on his own terms.
He uses alliteration with the words "mystical/moist," "time/time," and "silence/stars."

When I Heard the Learn’d Astronomer BY WALT WHITMANWhen I heard the learn’d astronomer,When the proofs, the figures, were ranged in columns before me,When I was shown the charts and diagrams, to add, divide, and measure them,When I sitting heard the astronomer where he lectured with much applause in the lecture-room,How soon unaccountable I became tired and sick,Till rising and gliding out I wander’d off by myself,In the mystical moist night-air, and from time to time,Look’d up in perfect silence at the starsDiscussion:The student attend a lecture on Astronomy then views the stars in an open firld.The poem discusses the difference between abstract thought astronomy and physics) and the appreciation of nature and beauty through personal observation.It could also examine the meths of observing and experiencing life to the scientist and the artist.
If you have access to a multi-meter, do a resistance check from end to end on each core while the cable is disconnected. You should have close to 0 ohms on both cores. Do a resistance check between the cores, while the cable is disconnected. You should have an open circuit between the two. Alternatively, connect one end to an amplifier, the other to a speaker and listen for sound. If nothing is heard, substitute the cable, then the speaker and finally the amplifier to establish where the fault is.
First, the speech should be easily heard and understood -- pace that is neither slow nor too fast, loud enough without background echoes or other impediment. At times, accents can be difficult to listen to, but if the other features are managed, it isn't so bad. Second, I would say that the information the speaker is providing should be interesting and not just a repetition of a list or powerpoint. I think the best speakers I have ever heard have rehearsed their speech a few times before giving it, so that the language is appealing to the ear, not just in written form.
He uses alliteration with the words "mystical/moist," "time/time," and "silence/stars."
The speaker in "When I Heard the Learn'd Astronomer" displays an attitude characteristic of Transcendentalism. He seeks a direct, personal experience with nature and knowledge rather than relying solely on academic or analytical understanding. By leaving the lecture hall to connect with the stars on his own terms, he values intuition and the spiritual over intellectualism.
The speaker leaves a lecture about stars to go look at the stars.
The speaker listens to an esteemed astronomer lecture on the stars. The astronomer displays various mathematical proofs and evidence in columns to the audience in support of a scientific argument. The astronomer also displays various charts and diagrams and explains the mathematical calculations behind them. The speaker sits in the audience, who all applaud the astronomer’s lecture with great enthusiasm. Very quickly and unexplainably, the speaker finds the whole lecture unbearable. Therefore, the speaker rises and leaves the lecture room alone. Outside, it is nighttime and the air is damp. There is a magical quality to the surrounding nature. Occasionally, the speaker looks up at the beautiful stars overhead and embraces the silence of the night.
After leaving the lecture hall, the speaker goes out alone into the night, looking up at the stars and finding peace and insight in the simplicity and beauty of nature.

The importance of experiencing the world
In "When I Heard the Learned Astronomer," Whitman seems to believe that personal experience and wonder are more important than dry scientific facts and data. He values the intuitive understanding of the universe that comes from his own contemplation and awe over the structured analysis presented by the astronomer.
