To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I had left my heart behind me, With my early home and kindred ; I was banished, I was exiled, And my spirit died within me When I saw the turbid waters Of the mighty Mississippi. When I thought of Taunton River, And the friends and homes of childhood, Quincy and the West 133 I could sing no song of rapture, For my harp hung in the willows, And the far-famed Mississippi Seemed, as to the Jewish captives, Did the Babylonish Rivers. I could only sing with sighing Songs of love and songs of longing..., For the waters of the Taunton, For my home on little Taunton. " In after years Mrs. Emery grew to love Quincy hardly less than the place of her birth. Quincy was an active river-town, of 15, 000 population, overhanging the muddy and sinuous Father of Waters. It was but little more than a quarter of a century off the stump when Mr. Emery came ; the era of log cabins had passed and a fine new house of worship of the First Congregational society now supplanted the old " Lord's Barn ; " but there was still a feeling of incompleteness to the town.
