Composed for the Times Democrat and Selected by u
o Goddess, standing at the gate
OF this wide empire, DER the surge
OF wild Atlantic rollers great
The winds bear thee a hopeless dirge
The mothers cry, the infants wall
Swell The diapason Of the gale
The cruel waters slowly rise,
This is the last the cry Of cries
Ere they submerged
0 Liberty. They have not seen
The wondrous glory Of thy face
They scarcely know what it may mean
The benediction Of thy g1Rcel
Yet catching al thy garments hem,
They pray thee to encompass them.
Are not thy skirts exceeding wider
Shall these poor people be denied
Their rightful placag
They were content until they caught
Upon the wind across the main
A breath Of thy pure incense brought
From alters heaped with wine and grain
And that breath stirred within their breast
The brave, the old divine unrest
And breaking all the bonds that bound,
They sought thee though thou must be found
With tears and pain
Is not the cup oerfowing YETI
Art thou not tired Of sacrhCeY
Have they not doubly paid the debt
With flesh and blood and streaming eyesY
Has not great travail made them purey
What thing remains to still endurei
All they have borne with equal mind
Do further ills remain behind
Still to be metz
What have they bornel God They have seen
Starved infant lips that sucked in vain
From haccid breasts all dry and lean,
The generous drops Of life TO drain;
sharp bosoms whereon famines seal
n yigiaby act: whose bones reveal
The exceeding dearth Of life within;
A starving crew, gaunt checked and thin
With prayer and pain!
The peaceful homes they buiIded wrecked
These have they seen fallen In the dust;
The wives God gave them to protect
Bruised victims Of the Spanards Inst.
All was prescribed beneath the ban
The life was doomed ere lifo began;
The infant in bis mothers womb
Blind to the light, found there tomb,
God Of the just
Spain made arenas great, wherein
Together hurdled on the sand
This CHASTITY crew gaunt-cheeked and thin,
Await the sure descending hand,
Let loose the lionsl Jesu, mol
There is q death more sure-and slow
Disease and famine arc the twain
That kill and then devour the slain,
At her command
Wild beasts might let the slaughter lull,
Sometimes they gOrged grow with feed;
Disease and famine never dull
Their hungers edge, but victims bleed
Continually No pityiug blow
Discovers from its mesh Of Voc
The tortured spirit Roman thou
Beside these brutes that butcher now,
Vert mercifull
Above the spinde's busy hum,
The furnace and the forges roar,
The message Of anguish come,
pulsatng from that island shorei
To us the Macedonian cry
Come ye and help as Of we die."
They are our brothers Hear again
