Farm hands from the
terraces
of the blest
Danced on the mists with their ladies fine;
And Johnny Appleseed laughed with his dreams,
And swam once more the ice-cold streams.

She whom both Pyrrhus and Libyan Mars
Found no way to tame, this proud city,
That with a courage forged in adversity,
Sustained the shock of endless wars,
Though her ship, plagued at the source
By great waves, felt the world's enmity,
None ever saw the reefs of adversity
Wreak havoc on her fortunate course:
But, the object of her virtue failing,
Her power opposed its own flailing,
Like the voyager whom a cruel gale
Has long since
separated
from the shore,
Driven now by the storm's wild roar,
And shipwrecked there, when all efforts fail.

The geese fly exactly under his zenith, and
honk when they get there, and he will keep himself
supplied
by firing
up his chimney; twenty musquash have the refusal of each one of his
traps before it is empty.

Your walls,
bloodied

Of fraternal strife, a sure foundation.
