Shall the voice of peace bring sweet release to the men behind the
guns!”

The hills and waters oer,
When a band of exiles moored their bark
On the wild New England shore.”

literalists of
the imaginationabove
insolence and triviality and can present
for inspection, imaginary gardens with real toads in them,
shall we have”
