THE HARVEST. Ye men of fair and sunny South, If there ye lose your manly grace With those of an inferior race, The wrong that ye have sadly made On earth ye cannot long evade.

With venial pride ye crushed him down; For him there was no freedman's crown. Your boast of might "as always right" To check the growth of liberty's light Still lingers 'neath our glorious sky !
