An eloquent poem by Alcott about a very difficult time.. Brilliantly worded TOP Marks.5 Stars
Brilliant poem by Alcott, difficult background but very important: the slaves, the Boston court was going on and Wendell Phillips was the person who led the rally. Alcott kept his words. Really an era full of problems.
'If Time long held thy merit in suspense, Hastening repentant now, with pen devout, Impartial History dare not leave thee out.' - The poem came to the conclusion so beautifully! Loved the informative comment of Susan Williams.
Yet runs to waste the sparkling opulence, — The scorn of bigots, and the worldling’s flout......wonderful expressive
This is not one of my favorites from Amos Bronson Alcott, but it does present a reasonable question.
got to admire any poet with the courage to rhyme eloquence.
Servant of the Right! ! ! ! ! Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
Tipped is thy tongue with golden eloquence, All honeyed accents fall from off thy lips, — Each eager listener his full measure sips, Yet runs to waste the sparkling opulence, a very good poem. Tony
Beautifully expressed piece with lots of creativity and excellent message. Thank you very much.
Alcott, father of Louisa May Alcott and a mild-mannered but innovative school teacher, joined a rally led by Wendell Phillips in support of a teen-aged fugitive slave on trial in Boston. Alcott and a few others tried to storm the courthouse. Even though shots were fired, Alcott was the only one who stood his ground. He was a man who stood up for his beliefs.
