Yet if I love thee, native land!
Is the bright South less dear? Can 1 not prize the lofty band Of generous spirits here? Souls warm with honour's sacred fire!
Hearts true in friendship known! Fearless I strike the patriot lyre — Its spirit is your own.
Augusta, (Geo. ) October, 1833.
At the request of a friend, the preceding lines were in- serted, with the signature of "Harold, " in one of the Augusta papers. The next number of the same Gazette contained the following noble verses in reply . Th...eir poet- ical merit, and the generous feeling they displayed, required an acknowledgment on my part; and the lines on the "A- mericanFlag, " were in consequence written and published.
TO HAKOLD. 73 "TO HAROLD. " "Child of those hills, whose lofty heights Their answering thunders woke; When struggling for her injured rights Our infant nation spoke: — Those barriers to the stormy sea, Where men, resolving to be free, First spurned the tyrant's yoke: — Can Southern hearts forget that spot?
Child of those hills!
