Our virgins dance beneath the shade—
I see their glorious black eyes shine;
But gazing on each glowing maid,
My own the burning tear-drop laves,
To think such breasts must suckle slaves.”

“These last worked only one hour, and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden of the day and the scorching heat.”
