Ah! forty years — they help a man, you see, in getting gray; They can not take the manly soul, that makes a man, away !
It's forty years, or near : to-day I go to vote once more ; Here, half a mile away, we see the crowd about the door.
302 POETRY OF AMERICA.
My boys, in Eighteen-Sixty — •■what ! my boj's ? my men, I mean !
(No better men nor braver souls in flosh-and-blood are seen !) One twenty-six, one twenty-three, rode with their father then : The ballot-box remembers theirs, — my vote I'l...l try again !
The ballot-box remember theirs, the country well might know — Though in a million only two for little seem to go ; But, somehow, when my ticket slipp'd I dream'd of Jack- son's day : The land, I thought, has need of One whose will will find a way !
Se did not waver when the need had call'd for steadfast thought — The word he spoke made plain the deed that lay behind it wi'ought ; And while I mused the Present fell, and, breathing back the Past, Again it seem'd the hale young man his vote for Jackson cast!
