    Off south, the bison multiply so fast
    a slaughter’s mandatory every spring

    Along the shore of silver streaming Thames,

    Was painted all with variable flowers,

    I trust the time is coming, when the occupation of an instructer [sic] to children will be deemed the most honorable of human employment. If it is a drudgery to teach these little ones, then it is the duty of men to bear a part of that burthen; if it is a privilege and an honor, then we generously invite them to share that honor and privilege with us.
    Angelina Grimké (1805–1879)
