Shut up in a grim slaughter pen.
Fought on till the last of them fell !
Thermopylae, pride of the Greek, A messenger had of defeat; The Alamo had none — 'tis meet.
For strong as the rocks of this land.
The spirit of that brave little band Yielded only to death, not defeat!
A figure here looms large, portentous, grim, A figure, shadowy, kindly, yet aloof.
Like Washington his outlines, far and dim.
Reveal the man of destiny; reproof, Such as the greatest only know, he knew, Resistless time alone ...revealed his size.
Sheared off the false and left the vision true.
Explained the dream that dwelt within his eyes.
Perhaps old Oolooteka, stoic chief.
Knew better of this strange adopted son.
Knew better of his hopes and of his grief, And guessed the course his troubled life would run.
Great in acclaim, far greater under slight.
His stature lessened not when petty scorn Brought out his greatness; ample in the light His figure towered, yet saddened and forlorn.
What Andrew Jackson did for Tennessee, Sam Houston did for Texas, and his love For his adopted land e'er let him see What time to court the eagle — when fhe dove.
