I should despair – but it has been my lot
Converse with those redeeming spirits to hold
Who on the path of freedom stern & bold
More onward – disappointment bends them not
Not death; – thus hope – they struggle – Memories old
And young devotion – the encouraging thought
That truth man must triumph drives the doubtings cold
Of worldly dreams away – & they have taught
My sometimes-sinking mind to believe – to trust –
And now I am at rest – for such as man I thought deemed the deed
It To earth & heaven, – 'The too-luxuriant weed
Its tyranny is rank – & spreads indeed –
But freedom soon shall blossom from the dust.
