'I'll think to-morrow, I must live to-day:'
So am I here—I own the laws are just—
And here, where thought is painful, think I must.
But speech is pleasant; this discourse with thee
Brings to my mind the sweets of liberty;
Breaks on the sameness of the place, and gives
The doubtful heart conviction that it lives,
"Let me describe my anguish in the hour
140
When law detained me and I felt its power.
