And pure as breast e'er wore.

With proud step and ayerted eye7
Nay nurse-not such belief

A feather, which thou mightest cast

Forever; till thus checked.

They chain thee 10 thy lowly lot.

Oh, stand erect! and from them BURST

Go, feel what have felt,

And the cold, proud worlds scorn:
Thus struggle on from year 10 year,
Thy sole relief the scaiding tear.
Go. weep as have wept,

See every cherished promise swept
Youths sweetness turned to gall:
Hopes faded flowers strewed all the way

Go, kneel as have knelt;
Implore, bcseech, and pray:
Strive the besotted heart to melt,
The downward course to stay
Be cast with bi tier curse aside
Thy prayers burlesqued-lhy tears dcfed.
Go, stand where have stood,
And see the strong man bow:
With gnashing teeth, lips bathed in blood,
And cold aud livid brow;
Catch his wandering glance, a nd see
There mirrored, his souls misery.
Go, hear what I have heard

Whose plighted faith, in early youth,
Promised eternal love and truth:
But who forsworn, hath yielded up
This promise 10 the deadly cup;

From all that made her pathway bright,
And chained her there, mid want and strife,
