 Tho’ all the powers of song thy fancy fired,
Yet Luxury and Wealth lay by in state,
 And, thankless, starv’d what they so much admired.

But dear to fame thy Song immortal lives,
 A nobler monument than Art ca...Read more of this...

...ack in, chewing the stalks as they go.

Bridges leap over the train with increasing frequency.

At each stop an additional story grows
onto the roofs. Finally houses with squares
and dots of windows rise up. No matter how far
you throw back your head, there are no tops.

Time and again, the telegraph poles are made
of wood. Maybe it only seems that way.

In the narrow canyons between the buildings, a sort
of adventurer-wind howls and runs away

...witnessed by Captain Babby of the ship "Carline,"
Who most fortunately arrived in the nick of time. 

And fourteen additional human beings were saved from the "Kent,"
And they thanked Captain Babby and God, who to them succour sent,
And had saved them from being burnt, and drowned in the briny deep;

years old. It derives additional interest from the fact of its being 
the very earliest piece of his that is preserved. The few other

are polemical, and devoid of interest to the English reader.]
