PILGRIM HALL, PLYMOUTH.
THE LANDING OF THE PILGRIM FATHERS IN NEW ENGLAND.
THE breaking waves dashed high On a stern and rock-bound coast, And the woods against a stormy sky Their giant branches tossed ; And the heavy night hung dark The hills and waters o'er, When a band of exiles moored their bark On the wild New England shore.
Not as the conqueror comes, They, the true-hearted, came ; Not with the roll of the stirring drums, Aud the trumpet that sings of fame : Not as the flying come, In sil...ence and in fear ; They shook the depths of the desert gloom With their hymns of lofty cheer.
70 POEMS OF THE PILGRIMS.
Amidst the storm they sang, And the stars heard, and the sea : And the sounding aisles of the dim woods rang To the anthem of the free !
The ocean eagle soared From his nest by the white wave's foam : And the rocking pines of the forest roared, - This was their welcome home !
There were men with hoary hair Amidst that pilgrim band ; Why had they come to wither there, Away from their childhood's land ?
