Goddess Of Liberty, Listenl

ella Wheeler Wilcox.)
Goddess of Liberty, listen,
Listen, I say, and look
To the sounds and sights of sorrow
This side of Sandy Hook:
Your eye is searching the distance,
You are holding your torch too high
To see the slaves that are fettered,
Though close at your feet they lie;
And the cry of the suffering stranger
Has reached your ear and your breast,
But you do not heed the wall that comes
From the haunts of your own oppressed.
Goddess of Liberty, follow,
Follow me where lead
Come down into the sweat shop
And look on the work of greed:
Look on the faces of children,
Old before they were born!
Look on the haggard women
OF all sex graces shorn!
Look on the men. God help us!
If this is what it means
To be men in the land Of freedom
And live like mere machines!
Goddess of Liberty, answer!
How can the slaves Of Spain
Find freedom under your banner,
While your own still wear the chain?
Loud is the screech OF your eagle,
And boastful the voice of your drums,
But they do not silence the wall of despair
That rises out OF your slums.
What will you do with your conquests,
And how shall the hosts be fed,
While your streets are filed with desperate
throngs,
Crying for work or bread:
