If they had put him upon the rack, it would have been the same with him. The curious crowd in the early morning, the ribald teamsters, the scornful sol- [123] CHARACTER OF NATHAN HALE diers, the half-drunken women of the streets who had gathered about that apple-tree to see the execution all these things were nothing to a man whose soul was fixed on God.
A resident of Hale's native town, Coventry, John S. Babcock, Esq. , and a poet of no mean reputation, has written a touching tribute to Hale's... memory, from which we quote the fol- lowing verses : " He fell in the spring of his early prime, With his fair hopes all around him ; He died for his birth-land a glorious crime, Ere the palm of his fame had crowned him.
" He fell in her darkness, he lived not to see The morn of her risen glory; But the name of the brave, in the heart of the free, Shall be twined in her deathless story. " I give below an epitaph which was written thirty years ago by George Gibbs, who was at one time the librarian of the New York His- torical Society: [124] CHARACTER OF NATHAN HALE Stranger, Beneath this Stone, Lies the Dust of A Spy Who Perished Upon the Gibbet ; Yet The Storied Marbles of the Great, The Shrines of Heroes, Entombed not one more Worthy of Honor Than him who here Sleeps his last sleep.
