" The scene of this Canto is laid in Perry county, Indiana, now Spen- cer countv. A little glade within the forest green, Upon a gentle rise of ground is seen, Beside the margin of the forest road ; And in the opening a cabin stood. Here Abraham came in youth's expanding pith, Amidst the spoils and amplitudes wherewith The early pioneer his years employed, By all luxurious vices unalloyed. The youth was busy with his daily care, The acres wild for culture to prepare, THE MOTHER. 107 And clear t...he farm the yellow corn to yield, Or blossom with the flax the flowery field. The era of log cabins in the West, When settlers' feet the virgin forest prest, Was, in the march of westward empire's way, The most distinctive period of its day. Here the young nation's late fledged wings were stretched ; Here were its growing bones and sinews fetched ; Its youthful strength, its nervous force here spent, And here its growing mind first took its bent Amidst the wilds of nature's broad domain, Majestic spread along the fallow plain.
