A TRIBUTE
By Lucy Foster Gulliford

A century has passed
Since Britain broke the shackles
From her Negro slaves.
Queen Victoria said:
They must be free:
Let freedom prevail
Over this Empires land and sea-"
And from her vault were poured
Millions to slave owners,
Saving her land from hate and sword,
And making the black slaves free.
II is far better to be free,
Though poverty be ones lot.
Hail Queen Victoria, for
It was she who wiped out slavery
From the British Isles.
The twenty million pounds she paid
Were well spent millions, which changed
To smiles the tears Of black-skinned
Mothers and their little babes.
