Now check thy heart and hold thy breath to gain

The smile and plaudit of a depths with bane

In finger tips, while fawning on their knees.

What! Think the tyrant, whose great soul is trade,

Whose history, a crater, belching black

And lurid, keeps glad Easter morning back

From half the world—loves thee save to invade,

As blackward planned? loves thee, along whose track

March Human rights up to the stars parade?
