THE HARVEST PLEDGE
By ]. DE- IEAN
THE Lord of the Manor with musket and sabre,
Went forth overlooking his serfs ~ their labor
For their loud harvest prayer % the God Of the Season
Disturbed his repose Ike an outburst Of treason
Yer il merely invoked Heavens grace on their pledge,
Vow rave i'm the ftlrrow feast from the ridge O.
4 praver 40 humble seems manifest token
The pride Of the people was blasted and broken.
Alb when fatal success puInes tyrants endeaFor,
How the mark Of the blaster remaneth forever
He had crushed 70 his brow, TIL it fitted him quite
The sovereign crown Of the peoples right
He had reaped the graveyard and wealth had howei
From the human crop his famine sowed
The strong winds of Winter he tired with the grOans
OF vvretches flung of from his rosdstead ike stones
But the Spring while il notified with king cup and daisy
His meadows Of emerald. made him uneasy
Il whispered abroad Of mighty newcomer,
spirit TO speak mems souls through the Summer
And the spirit came in the freshness and beauty
OF truth to proclaim the imperative duty
OF Man to himselfis, not only 10 labor
With sickle and spade bat to hold with the sabre
That slaves changed their tyrants from bats into eagles
And their packs OF pursuers 10 lions from beegles
That each grain Of the harvest with weapons should
briste,
Canst the hand Of Oppression like hedgehog or thistle
That The hyest Of birds took Ms share from the spoer
And that courage alone was the want Of the toler.
so the serfs in the face Of the Lord Of the Manor,
Set spear for shaft and sheai for banner
And said II ~ chose, from the sEvard 70 the SKY
From centre % shore, thou shouldst yield-or die
II is ours-by the gift Of the glorious Creator
Il s thne-by the grippe Of the robber and cheateri
But We seek only bread-we the wronged nom the
wrOnger-
Let US ea-and thy burdens may bind rs yet longer
Al when fatal success crowns tyrant endeavor,
How the mark Of the blaster remaneth forever
Soon he lowered his weapons. remembering how
The soft hand in milking gets most from the COW
He saw serfs must be fed after toll,
Ere the olive Of peace could strike root In the soil
That he need not unchain them but lengthen their
tether
and the dupes and himself might live happy together,
In that spirit made answer the Lord OF the Manor
And they broke OF the spesrhead and pulled down
the banner then
They crushed not the crusher freed themselves
May he load them and scourge them and starve them
