THE PILGRIM FATHERS.
By JOHN FIERPoNT,


The Pilgrim Fathers,-where are they p
The waves that brought them Ger
Still roll IN the hay, and throw their spray
AS they break along the shore;
Still roll IN the bay, as they rOll'd that day
When Mayt1Ower moor'd below.
When the sea around was black with storms.
And white the shore with snow.
The mists, that wrappd the Pilgrims sleep.
Still brood upon the tide;
And his rocks yet keep their watch by the deep
To stay Its waves of pride.
But the snow-whte sail, that he gave to the gale
When the heavens look'd dark, 10 gone -
As IN angels wing, thrOu IN an opening cloud,
Is seen, and then withdrawn.
The Pilgrim exils,-sainted namel
. The hill, whose icy brow
heJolced, when ne came IN the mornings flame
. in The morning fame burns now
and the moons cold hight, as it Law that nigbt
On the hillside and the sea-
Stlll lies where he lard hrs hoTrseless heaI-
But the Phgrim-where rs he!
The Pilgrim Fathers are at rest
. " hen the summers throned on high.
Ahu tue wore warm breast Is In verCfue dressed.
The earliest ray of the golden day
On that hallow'd spot is cast;
And the evening sun, as he leaves the world,
Looks kindly on that spot last.
The Pilgrim spirit has not fed,
IL walks IN Moons broad light;
And II watches the bed of the glorious q cad.
With their holy stars by night.
IL watches the bed of the brave who bled,
And shall guard this ice bound shore,
Till the way Of the bay where the May flower lay
Shall foam and freeze no more.
