This author wrote "Life's 'great things,' like the Syrian lord / our hearts can do and dare" in "The Cypress-Tree of Ceylon" In another poem, he wrote "Oh nebber you fear, if nebber you hear, / Dedriver blow his horn!" during the "Song of the Negro Boatmen," part of "At Port Royal," and he also wrote "When faith is lost, when honor dies / The man is dead!" in a poem condemning (*) Daniel Webster's endorsement of the Fugitive Slave Act. The title character does not marry the Judge in a poem that says "Of all sad words of tongue and pen, the saddest are these: 'It might have been!'" The call "Boys, a path!" leads to the creation of "A tunnel walled and overlaid / With dazzling crystal" in another of his poems. For 10 points, name this author of "Ichabod," "Maud Muller," and "Snow-Bound,"whose title character says "Shoot, if you must, this old gray head, but spare your country's flag" in"Barbara Frietchie."
