Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Poems
At morning light October twelfth, In fourteen hundred ninety-two, With Shouts of joy and dreams of wealth, Columbus and his happy crew, Sang land ahoy! Sweet land ahoy! And landing on the virgin soil, Gave thanks to God, in tears Of joy, And laughed at danger, care and toil.
