Loudly proclaiming liberty to slaves. Shame and confusion on pursuing knaves. Firm and unyielding stood the massive throng. Swearing that freedom should be guarded strong. That no slave should be carried thence in chains, But slavehounds might " get out " with all their pains. In dire dismay the sneaking slavehounds quailed,... At that bold scene their blustering courage failed ; Fearful they hesitate what course to take, Their honor, pride, and glory, all at stake. 72 SLAVERY ;AP0EM.
