Southern Song of Liberty.
1.
On! on! to the just and glorious strife With your swords your freedom shielding; Nay resign if it must be even life, But die at last unyielding.
2.
On to the strife, for ’twere far more meet To sink with the foes who bay you, Than crouch like dogs at Lincoln’s feet, And smile on the swords that slay you.
3.
Shall the Northern hordes be masters then Of the land which your fathers gave you? Shall Lincoln’s dogs lord it o’er brave men When your own good swords may save you?
4.
No; let them feel that your arms are strong, That your courage will fail you never; You strike to repay years of wrong, And bury past shame forever.
5.
Let him learn how weak is a tyrant’s might Against liberty’s sword contending: And find how Southern men can fight Their freedom and land defending.
6.
Then on! then on! to the glorious strife With your swords your country shielding; And resign if it must be even life, But die at last unyielding.
7.
Strike! for the sires who left you free, Strike! for their sakes who bore you; Strike! for your homes and liberty, And the heaven you worship o’er you.

How often we forget all time, when lone Admiring Nature's universal throne; Her woods—her wilds—her mountains—the intense Reply of HERS to OUR intelligence!
[BYRON, The Island.]
I
In youth have I known one with whom the Earth In secret communing held—as he with it, In daylight, and in beauty from his birth: Whose fervid, flickering torch of life was lit From the sun and stars, whence he had drawn forth A passionate light—such for his spirit was fit— And yet that spirit knew not, in the hour Of its own fervor what had o'er it power.
II
Perhaps it may be that my mind is wrought To a fever by the moonbeam that hangs o'er, But I will half believe that wild light fraught With more of sovereignty than ancient lore Hath ever told—or is it of a thought The unembodied essence, and no more, That with a quickening spell doth o'er us pass
As dew of the night-time o'er the summer grass?
III
Doth o'er us pass, when, as th' expanding eye To the loved object—so the tear to the lid Will start, which lately slept in apathy? And yet it need not be—(that object) hid From us in life—but common—which doth lie Each hour before us—but then only, bid With a strange sound, as of a harp-string broken, To awake us—'Tis a symbol and a token
IV
Of what in other worlds shall be—and given In beauty by our God, to those alone Who otherwise would fall from life and Heaven Drawn by their heart's passion, and that tone, That high tone of the spirit which hath striven, Tho' not with Faith—with godliness—whose throne With desperate energy 't hath beaten down;
Wearing its own deep feeling as a crown.

1845; addressed to Frances Sargent Osgood
In youth have I known one with whom the Earth
In secret communing held- as he with it,
In daylight, and in beauty from his birth:
Whose fervid, flickering torch of life was lit
From the sun and stars, whence he had drawn forth
A passionate light- such for his spirit was fit-
And yet that spirit knew not, in the hour
Of its own fervor what had o'er it power.
Perhaps it may be that my mind is wrought
To a fever by the moonbeam that hangs o'er,
But I will half believe that wild light fraught
With more of sovereignty than ancient lore
Hath ever told- or is it of a thought
The unembodied essence, and no more,
That with a quickening spell doth o'er us pass
As dew of the night-time o'er the summer grass?
Doth o'er us pass, when, as th' expanding eye
To the loved object- so the tear to the lid
Will start, which lately slept in apathy?
And yet it need not be- (that object) hid
From us in life- but common- which doth lie
Each hour before us- but then only, bid
With a strange sound, as of a harp-string broken,
To awake us- 'Tis a symbol and a token
Of what in other worlds shall be- and given
In beauty by our God, to those alone
Who otherwise would fall from life and Heaven
Drawn by their heart's passion, and that tone,
That high tone of the spirit which hath striven,
Tho' not with Faith- with godliness- whose throne
With desperate energy 't hath beaten down;
Wearing its own deep feeling as a crown.

V.
AN AUNT AND AN UNCLE.
I have but an aunt and an uncle For kinsfolk on the earth, And one has passed me unnoticed And hated me from my birth; But the first has reared me and taught me, Whatever I have of worth.
This is my uncle by marriage, For his wife my aunt had died, And left him all her possessions, With much that was mine beside— ​'Tis said that he hated her brother, As much as he loved the bride.
That brother, my father, forgave him, As his last hour ran its sand, And begged in return his forgiveness, As he placed in his sister's hand The bonds, that when I was twenty, Should be at my command.
For my mother was dead, God rest her, And I would be left alone. The bride to her trust was unfaithful— vHer heart was harder than stone. And her widowed sister, left childless, Adopted me as her own.
So we dwelt in opposite houses— We in a dwelling low, And he in a brown stone mansion. I toiled and my gain was slow. My uncle rode in a carriage As fine as there was in the row.
Once, in a useless anger, With courage not mine before, I bearded the crafty lion, Demanding my own, no more. He said the law gave me nothing, And showed me out of his door.
# Stories in Verse/Blanche/Chapter 8

VIII.
HOW A POOR GIRL WAS MADE RICH.
All the day my toil was easy, for I knew that in the evening, I could go home from my labor, and find Blanche at the door; How could I dream the sunlight in my sky was so deceiving? And I ceased in my believing 'twould be cloudy ever more.
When at last the twilight deepened, I entered our low dwelling, And my darling rose to meet me, with the love-light in her eyes; On that day her simple story to my aunt she had been telling, ​And I saw her words were welling, fraught with ominous surprise.
For it seems my hated uncle, once had given him a daughter, Who on a saddened morning had been stolen from the door, And through the panting city the criers cried and sought her, But in vain; they never brought her to his threshold any more.
Blanche was she, my uncle's daughter; no unwelcome truth was plainer; For a small peculiar birth-mark was apparent on her arm. Had I lost her? Was it possible ever more now to regain her? Would he spurn me, and restrain her with his wily golden charm?
All that night my heart was bitter with unutterable anguish, And I cried out in my slumber till with my words I woke: "How long, O Lord, must poverty bow down its head and languish, While wrong, with wealth to garnish it, makes strong the heavy yoke?"
# Stories in Verse/Blanche/Chapter 6

VI.
MY AUNT INVITES HER IN TO DINE.
This is the place, this is the hour, And through the shine, or through the shower, She promised she would come. O, darling day, she is so sweet I could kneel down and kiss her feet. Her presence makes me dumb.
A thousand things that I would say, And ponder when she is away, Desert me when she's near— When she is near—twice we have met! Though but a month has passed as yet, It seems almost a year.
O, now she comes, and here she stands, And gives me hers in both my hands, And blushes to her brow. She eyes askance her simple gown, And folds a Judas tatter down She has not seen till now.
I said, "My love you made me wait, I grew almost disconsolate Thinking you would not come. Ah, tell me what you have to do, That makes your duty, sweet, for you My rival in your home."
​"My home!" she answered, "I have none. For me, 'tis years since there was one, And that was scarcely mine. Father and mother both are dead; I sell sweet flowers to earn my bread— Their fragrance is my wine.
"Sometimes the house upon the farm, Sometimes the city's friendly arm, Shields me from rain and dew. I did not know that it was late; The minutes you have had to wait, Are truly but a few."
A smile shone through her large dark eyes, As sometimes, in the stormy skies, The light puts through an arm, Which, spreading glory far and wide, Draws the broad curtain cloud aside, Making the whole earth warm.
She took my arm; we walked away; We saw, in parks, the fountains play; My heart was all elate. I scarcely noticed when I stood, With my dear waif of womanhood, Beside our lowly gate.
"You have no home," I gently said, "But, till the day that we are wed, And after if you will, ​This home, my love, is mine and thine." My aunt came out and bade us dine— I see her smiling still.
My Blanche, reluctant, gave consent; Then 'neath the humble roof we went, And sat about the board. I saw how sweet the whole surprise; I saw her fond uplifted eyes, Give thanks unto the Lord.

VII.
THE PROPHECY.
There is a prophecy of our line, Told by some great grand-dame of mine I once attempted to divine.
'Tis that two children, then unborn, Would know a wealthy wedding morn, Or die in poverty forlorn.
These children would be of her name. If to the bridal bans they came, The house would gather strength and fame.
But if they came not, woe is me, The line would ever cease to be, The wealth would take its wings and flee.
​If all the signs are coming true, I am the child she pictured, who The name should keep or hide from view.
In our domain of liberty, Our heed is light of pedigree, I care not for the prophecy.
For what to me our wealth or line? I only wish to make her mine— The maid my aunt asked in to dine.
# Stories in Verse/Blanche/Chapter 4

IV.
WHAT ONE FINDS IN THE COUNTRY.
I went out in the country To spend an idle day— To see the flowers in blossom, And scent the fragrant hay.
The dawn's spears smote the mountains Upon their shields of blue, And space, in her black valleys, Joined in the conflict too.
​The clouds were jellied amber; The crickets in the grass Blew pipe and hammered tabor, And laughed to see me pass.
The cows down in the pasture, The mowers in the field, The birds that sang in heaven, Their happiness revealed.
My heart was light and joyful, I could not answer why; And I thought that it was better Always to smile than sigh.
How could I hope to meet her Whom most I wished to meet? If always I had lost her, Then life were incomplete.
The road ran o'er a brooklet; Upon the bridge she stood, With wild flowers in her ringlets, And in her hand her hood.
The morn laid on her features An envious golden kiss; She might have fancied truly, I longed to share its bliss.
​I said, "O, lovely maiden, I have sought you many a day. That I love you, love you, love you, Is all that I can say."
Her mournful eyes grew brighter, And archly glanced, though meek. A bacchanalian dimple Dipt a wine-cup in her cheek.
"If you love me, love me, love me, If you love me as you say, You must prove it, prove it, prove it!" And she lightly turned away.
# Stories in Verse/Blanche/Chapter 9

IX.
THE MISER.
'Tis said, that when he saw his child, And saw the proof that she was his, The first in many a year he smiled, And pressed upon her brow a kiss.
In both his hands her hand he bound, And led her gayly through his place. He said the dead years circled round, Hers was so like her mother's face.
He scarcely moves him from her side— Her every hour with joy beguiles. To make the gulf between us wide, He acts the miser of her smiles.
He brings her presents rich and rare— Wrought gold by cunning hands impearled, Round opals that with scarlet glare, The lightning of each mimic world.
