This poet uses images of dead bodies. He describes the bodies as "gaunt and grim, with well gray'd hair, and flesh all sunken about the eyes." Walt Whitman uses a form of a unified pattern of his sadness with seeing his fellow soldiers dead. He shows the imagery of almost not being able to recognize them. There is a never-ending cycle of people dying.

A Sight In Camp In the Daybreak Gray and Dim 

# data[].attributes.body
A SIGHT in camp in the daybreak gray and dim,

As from my tent I emerge so early sleepless,

As slow I walk in the cool fresh air the path near by the hospital
tent,

Three forms I see on stretchers lying, brought out there untended
lying,

Over each the blanket spread, ample brownish woolen blanket,

Gray and heavy blanket, folding, covering all.

Curious I halt and silent stand,

Then with light fingers I from the face of the nearest the first just
lift the blanket;

Who are you elderly man so gaunt and grim, with well-gray'd
hair, and flesh all sunken about the eyes?

Who are you my dear comrade?

Then to the second I step—and who are you my child and
darling?

Who are you sweet boy with cheeks yet blooming?

Then to the third—a face nor child nor old, very calm, as of
beautiful yellow-white ivory;

Young man I think I know you—I think this face is the face
of the Christ himself,

Dead and divine and brother of all, and here again he lies.

The theme of this poem is patriotism and sacrifice explaining how his brother went into a war and when he came to take care of him he saw many dead bodies he says here "Then with light fingers I from the face of the nearest the first just
lift the blanket; Who are you elderly man so gaunt and grim, with well-gray'd hair, and flesh all sunken about the eyes?

Who are you my dear comrade?" He also uncovers a third body and says that it's jesus making the connection to sacrifice like how jesus sacrificed himself for us.

The tone is peaceful and sad. As the soldier sees his fellow soldiers dead on the floor with "a face nor child nor old, very calm, as of beautiful yellow-white ivory." He compares the fallen people to christ. This is ironic because Christ has died and risen and this is what has happened to the dead soldiers. As well as the soldiers struggling to recognize his fellow soldiers.
