Answer:

graft - to combine or integrate

transpire - to be revealed

to mottle- to mark with spots

Explanation:

"Song of Myself" is a poem by Walt Whitman, included in his collection Leaves of Grass. It is also the longest poem in this collection, and deals with the search for identity.

In the first excerpt of the poem - ''The first I graft and increase upon myself, the latter I translate into new tongue'', the meaning of the word 'graft' is to combine or integrate.

In the second excerpt - ''It may be you transpire from the breasts of young men", the word 'transpire' means to be revealed.

In the last excerpt, "Earth of shine and dark mottling the tide of the river", the contextual meaning of 'mottling' is marking with spots or blotches.

To access your course materials such as reading assignments,textbooks, and other lesson content what would be the best to go to?

Softa [21]

i would assume the "program and courses page" unless it's just a list of your current courses with no external links. if that is the case, then i'd try "library--" the library page at my old middle school actually contained links to lots of helpful websites and lesson content!
