Go feel what / have felt,
Go bear hat | have borne
Sink meath the blow a father dealt,
And the cold worlds proud scorn;
Then suffer on from year TO year
Thy sole relief the scorching tear.
Go kneel as ! have knelt,
Implore, beseech and pray
Strive the bespotted heart to melt,
The downward course to stay,
Be dashed with bitter curse aside,
Your prayers burlesqued your tear deied.
Go weep as | nave wept,
O'er a loved father's fall
See every promised blessing swept
Youths sweetness turned TO gall
Life's fading flowers strewed all the way
That brought me up to woman's day.
Go see what l have seen,
Behold the strong man bowed
With crashing teeth lips bathed in blood
And cold and livid brow;
Go catch his withered glance and see
There mirrored, his souls misery.
Go then 10 mothers side
>And her crushed bosom cheer,
Thine own deep anguish hide;
Wipe from her cheek the bitter tear;
Mark her worn frame and wither'd brow
The gray that streaks her dark hair now
With failing frame and trembling limb;
And trace the ruin back to him
Whose plighted faith in early youth,
Promised eternal love and truth,
But who, forsworn, hath yielded up
That promise to the cursed cup;
And led her down through love, and light,
And all that made her prospects bright;
And chained her there mid van and strife
That lowly thing, a drunkard's wife
And stamped on childhood's brow so mild,
That whitening blight, the drunkard's child!
Go bear, and feel, and see, and know,
All that my soul hath felt and known,
Then look upon the wine cups glow,
See if its beauty can atone
Think If its flavor you will try
When all proclaim: ''tis drink and dep
Tell me I hate the bowl
