Ye Clouds, that in your temples in the West See nothing brighter than its humblest flowers! And you, ye Winds, that on the ocean's breast Are kissed to coolness ere ye reach its bowers!

Página 333 - Ah ! who would couple thoughts of war and crime With such a blessed time ! Who in the west wind's aromatic breath Could hear the call of Death ! Yet not more surely shall the Spring awake The voice of wood and brake, Than she shall rouse, for all her tranquil charms, A million men to arms. There shall be deeper hues upon her plains Than all her sunlit rains, And every gladdening influence around, Can summon from the ground.
Página 92 - SOUTHRONS, hear your country call you! Up, lest worse than death befall you! . To arms! To arms! To arms, in Dixie! Lo! all the beacon-fires are lighted, — Let all hearts be now united!
