Whitman begins by comparing Lincoln to the captain of a ship and his army to a boat. The metaphor honors Lincoln and the army for helping defend and win the idea of freedom. Whitman ends the poem by saying that Lincoln, the captain, has died. The army and the United States have lost an important leader.

yes. That is True. A buisness letter is formal, and uses profession writing and formatting. A friendly letter is playful, and does not need to be formal, and respectful. (In writing terms) A buisness letter is professional and serious. It is True.
