63 The sleigh-drive through the frosty night, The rustic party, with its rough Accompaniment of blind-man's-buff.
And whirling plate, and forfeits paid.
His winter task a pastime made.
Happy the snow-locked homes wherein He tuned his merry violin, Or played the athlete in the barn.
Or held the good dame's winding-yam, Or mirth-provoking versions told Of classic legends rare and old.
Wherein the scenes of Greece and Rome Had all the commonplace of home.
64 Born the wild northern hills among And ...little seemed at best the odds 'Twixt Yankee peddlers and old gods ; Where Pindus-bom Arachthus took The guise of any grist-mill brook- And dread Olympus at his will Became a huckleberry hill.
A CARELESS boy that night he seemed ; But at his desk he had the look And air of one who wisely schemed.
And hostage from the future took In trained thought and lore of book.
Large-brained, clear-eyed, of such as he 66 Shall Freedom's young apostles be, Who, following in War's bloody trail, Shall every lingering wrong assail ; All chains from limb and spirit strike, Uplift the black and white alike ; Scatter before their swift advance The darkness and the ignorance.
