hPOSl2OPHE TO THE ISLAND OF CUBA
THERE is blood on thy desolate shore,
inou island OF plumber and slaves
Thy pillows are purpled with gore
And murder has ciimson'd thy waves;
The vengeance of nations will come,
And wrath shall be rain'd on thy head
And IN terror thy voice shall be dumb,
When they ask for their brother who bled
Thy hand was not stirT'd, when their fe-biood was
split;
And therefore that hand mast partake in the guilt
Thou art guilty or wealz--and the rod
Should be wrenchd from thy palsicd hand;
BY the pirate thy green fields are trod,
And rs steps have polluted thy land
Unmoy q Is thy heart and thine eye,
When our dearones are tortured and slain:
But their blood with terrible CRY
Call On vengeance and calls not in vain
Il Europe regard not--our land shall awake
And thy ais and thy shall ,rembe and shake
The voice Of world shall lie heard.
And thy faith shall be tried by the call;
And that terrible voice shall be fear'd
And obey dor the proud one shall fal.
Enough ci our life las been shed
In watching and fighting for thee
~ Ny loot hngeT still-on thy head
4 ne guilt and the vengeance shall he:
We have sworn that the Spiiit Of ALLEN shall lead,
and our wrath shall not rest tl we finish the deed.
