John Greenleaf Whittier

James Russell Lowell

From purest wells of English undefiled
None deeper drank than he, the New World’s child,
Who in the language of their farm-fields spoke
The wit and wisdom of New England folk,
Shaming a monstrous wrong. The world-wide laugh
Provoked thereby might well have shaken half
The walls of Slavery down, ere yet the ball
And mine of battle overthrew them all.
