Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Nation's Birth and Other National Poems
Deep nature feels with deeper man, Attuned to helpfullest accord When first creative breathings here began Their endless work and sacred word. The invisible circumambient air Feeds with its finest food the soul, And from sidereal reaches brings More heavenly visitings When nobler aspirations bear Upward men's thought and a stout will con trol. And now the manful race, Who close behind tempestuous capes Had built self-governed tenures, brace Brave hearts 'gainst usurpation, that aye gapes For more. From Hampshire's mountain fields To Georgia's hot alluvial plains. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
