Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Peace: And Other Poems Peace. I. With Peace returned, and Reason´s even sway Once more resumed within the balanced mind, Tell, Muse! the cause why, in such dread array, This age of light and loftier hopes should find Men armed in deadly conflict with their kind; Why brethren, in a land so truly free, Thought, purpose, act, enjoyment unconfined, Should meet again in hostile rivalry, As erst, in former years and climes beyond the sea. II. Was it for this our fathers crossed the main? For this they founded, on a distant shore, New forms of government, where Peace should reign And shower her choicest blessings evermore? If such the fruits their labors, sufferings bore, Alas! for hope upon this dreary earth! That blissful period, prophesied of yore, The long millenial reign, the rule of worth, When nations shall not war, will never know a birth.
