To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The drama o'er, the shapes of air Melt softly from the circle' s gaze ; Then flows as pure as seraph's prayer, A song of fond and burning praise.
" Hail Liberty ! thou image true Of God who longing never knew Except to bathe all souls in dew Of his pure happiness.
"Thou art more precious e'en than sight, More holy than sweet heaven's light, For, wanting thee, tliey do but blight The spirit they should bless.
"If they but show the gilded chain.
They make the soul itself disdain.
And wealth and b...eauty woo in vain To quench its rebel Are.
"Thy robe is now without a stain.
And thine own land, from main to main, A slave to naught shall bear again.
Save to his own desire.
"All misers are the slaves of dust, — All libertines the slaves of lust, — And tyrants slaves to fearful trust, — The good alone are free.
" Let all men worship at thy shrine, — All souls be free and pure as thine, — All earth a brotherhood divine As sons of Liberty." A Poem of 1876. 15 XYIII.
As ceased the strain, the goddess bowed With smile and blush of Spring, And answered from her rosy cloud, With voice of trumpet ring.
