Behold her ! this is she ! Beautiful as morning on the summer sea, Yet terrible as is the elemental gold That cleaves the tempest and in angles clings About its cloudy temples. Manifold The dreams of daring in her fearless gaze, Fixed on the future's days ; And round her brow, a strand of astral beads, Her soul's resplendent deeds ; And at her front one star, Refulgent hope, 14 n Ode Like that on morning's slope, Beaconing the world afar. From her high place she sees Her long procession of acco...mplished acts, Cloud-wing'd refulgences Of thoughts in steel and stone, of marble dreams, Lift up tremendous battlements, Sun-blinding, built of facts ; While in her soul she seems, Listening, to hear, as from innumerable tents, /Eonian thunder, wonder, and applause Of all the heroic ages that are gone ; Feeling secure That, as her Past, her Future shall endure, As did her Cause When redly broke the dawn Of fierce rebellion, and, beneath its star, The firmaments of war Poured down infernal rain, And North and South lay bleeding 'mid their slain.
