"Shall the Spring dawn, and she still clad in smiles,
And with an unscathed brow,
Rest in the strong arms of her palm-crowned isles,
As fair and free as now?

We know not; in the temple of the Fates
God has inscribed her doom;
And, all untroubled in her faith, she waits
The triumph or the tomb."
Henry Timrod (1828-1867), U.S. poet. Charleston (l. 37-44). . . Oxford Book of American Verse, The. F. O. Matthiessen, ed. (1950) Oxford University Press.

"Calm as that second summer which precedes
The first fall of the snow,
In the broad sunlight of heroic deeds,
The City bides the foe."
Henry Timrod (1828-1867), U.S. poet. Charleston (l. 1-4). . . Oxford Book of American Verse, The. F. O. Matthiessen, ed. (1950) Oxford University Press.
