How do I write a multi-paragraph compare/contrast essay between "I Hear America Singing" by Walt Whitman and "I, Too, Sing America" by Langston Hughes?

A comparison/contrast essay should follow an outline somewhat similar to the following: introduction (with thesis statement), comparison point number one, comparison 2, comparison 3, contrast 1, contrast 2, contrast 3, conclusion.

A complete summary of each essay can be found here. Analysis is included. http://www.bookrags.com/essay-2003/8/21/23450/0216/
