Ho! thou dark and weary stranger

From the tropic’s palmy strand,

Bowed with toil, with mind benighted,

What wouldst thou upon our land?

Am I not, O man, thy brother?

Spake the stranger, patiently,

All that makes thee, man, immortal,

Tell me, dwells it not in me?

I, like thee, have joy, have sorrow;

I, like thee, have love and fear;
