If man could change the universe

By force of epigrams in verse,

He’d smash some idols, I allow,

But who would alter Mrs. Howe?

Robert Grant.

Lady who lovest and who livest Peace,

And yet didst write Earth’s noblest battle song

At Freedom’s bidding,—may thy fame increase

Till dawns the warless age for which we long!

Frederic Lawrence Knowles.
