# Ben King's Verse/'Rastus King

As you happen jes' to mention  Old time friends 'at sort o' bring Mem'ries back, I'd like to ask  What's become o' 'Rasus King?
Did he go out west prospectin'  Far on Californy's rim? Did he settle with the Injuns,  Or did the Injuns settle him?
What a great big-hearted feller  'Rasus was, and how he'd sing! Sometimes tears 'll start to rollin'  When I think o' 'Rastus King.
Where is he an' what's come of him?  Is he toilin' hard fer bread? Is he prosperous and wealthy?  Is he livin' still, or dead?
How my heart recalls the mornin'  That I met him. Splittin' wood, Payin' fer his school, tuition,  Earnin' thus a livelihood,
Allers boarded at the neighbors,  Turned his hand at anything; Faithful, honest; well the farmers  Simply swore by 'Rastus King.
Find him down to meetin' Sundays  Sittin' in the deacon's pew; Talk about yer knowledge; he had  Read the Bible through and through.
When the choir would jine together  An' with the congregation sing, Way above all other voices  You could hear 'im--'Rastus King.
Did you ever come to meet 'im?  Do you think he's livin' here? Say, he ain't much older 'n I am;  Reckon now he's sixty year.
Last I heerd he's doin' splendid,  Rich, fast horses, everything. Jest like him, a regular schemer;  Oh! I knew him, 'Rastus King.
Then the hackman I'd been asking  All these questions thus did say: "'Rastus livin' purty quiet;  Don't go out at all, they say."
"Don't go out at all--why, stranger?  What's the matter? Did he fail?" "Well," said he, "nothin's the matter,  Stephen, only he's in jail."

# Ben King's Verse/A Record F'om Way 'Back

YO' spose I'se gwine ter cuh-comb
An' boddah wid dis nag
Ef I low'd he wasn't evah gwinter go?
Why chile, yo' make me tiahed!
Dis ve'y hoss was siahed
By Pokehontas fohty yeahs ago.
I'se doctahed up his wheezin',
An' done stopped him ob his sneezin';
En pahsley cuahed de spavin on his baik;
Ef he wasn't quite so bulky,
I'd put him 'foah de sulky,
An' lait yo' see his motion on de traik.
'Ceptin' froo de wintah, las' yeah
I haid him out to pastuah;
But de famah said he didn't hab no saince.
Dar's nuffin 'll keep 'im quiet
When he gits down on 'is diet,
An' once 'e eat a whole bahb-wiah faince.
De way I come to buy 'im
Was, de day I come to try 'im
I'se dumb-foundered wid de way he tuk de bit,
An' as I was on mah way baik,
He kerlided wid a hay stack,
An' hi couldn't coax'is tenshun offen hit.
Yo' notice dat he winks, sah,
He's comin' out de kinks, sah;
An' mine yo' doan go nyah his heels at all,
Kase 'e's nuhvas an' 'e's dangus,
An' speshly so to strangus,
An' hi nevah 'low no pusson 'roun' 'is stall.
He's pow'ful fond ob grazin'
An' his appytite's amazin';
Dat's a sho sign dat 'e's got good bottom to 'im.
When I bought 'im 'e's so thin
Dat 'e couldn't ketch's win',
An' Rasmus, yo' could read a papah thro' 'im.
I tale yo' he's a hummah,
'Low I'll show de folks dis summah,
Kase jes' now he aint feelin' zackly bright,
When he gets 'is second win' sah,
Yo' ought to see him spin, sah,
Why, chile, dat hoss's reckod's out ob sight.
# Ben Bolt (1843)

1843
Don't you remember sweet Alice, Ben Bolt?  Sweet Alice whose hair was so brown, Who wept with delight when you gave her a smile  And trembled with fear at your frown? In the old churchyard in the valley, Ben Bolt,  In a corner obscure and alone, They have fitted a slab of the granite so gray,  And Alice lies under the stone.
Under the hickory tree, Ben Bolt,  Which stood at the foot of the hill, Together we've lain in the noonday shade,  And listened to Appleton's mill: The mill-wheel has fallen to pieces, Ben Bolt,  The rafters have tumbled in, And a quiet which crawls round the walls as you gaze,  Has followed the olden din.
Do you mind the cabin of logs, Ben Bolt,  At the edge of the pathless wood, And the button-ball tree with its motley limbs,  Which nigh by the door-step stood? The cabin to ruin has gone, Ben Bolt,  The tree you would seek in vain; And where once the lords of the forests waved,  Grows grass and the golden grain.
And don't you remember the school, Ben Bolt,  With the master so cruel and grim, And the shadow nook in the running brook,  Where the children went to swim? Grass grows on the master's grave, Ben Bolt,  The spring of the brook is dry, And of all the boys who were schoolmates then,  There are only you and I.
There is a change in the things I loved, Ben Bolt,  They have changed from the old to the new; But I feel in the deeps of my spirit the truth,  There never was change in you. Twelvemonths twenty have past, Ben Bolt,  Since first we were friends -- yet I hail Thy presence a blessing, thy friendship a truth,  Ben Bolt of the salt-sea gale.

# Ben Karshook's Wisdom

Layout 2
"Would a man 'scape the rod?"  Rabbi Ben Karshook saith, "See that he turn to God
 The day before his death."
"Ay could a man enquire
 When it shall come!" I say, The Rabbi's eye shoots fire—  "Then let him turn to-day!"
Quoth a young Sadducee:  "Reader of many rolls,
Is it so certain we  Have, as they tell us, souls?"
"Son, there is no reply!"  The Rabbi bit his beard: "Certain, a soul have I—  We may have none," he sneer'd.
Thus Karshook, the Hiram's-Hammer,  The Right-hand Temple-column, Taught babes in grace their grammar,  And struck the simple, solemn.
[Rome, April 27, 1854]
