A
A is an Abolitionist--
A man who wants to free
The wretched slave--and give to all
An equal liberty.
B
B is a Brother with a skin
Of somewhat darker hue,
But in our Heavenly Father's sight,
He is as dear as you.
C
C is the Cotton-field, to which
This injured brother's driven,
When, as the white-man's _slave_, he toils,
From early morn till even.
D
D is the Driver, cold and stern,
Who follows, whip in hand,
To punish those who dare to rest,
Or disobey command.
E
E is the Eagle, soaring high;
An emblem of the free;
But while we chain our brother man,
_Our_ type he cannot be.
F
F is the heart-sick Fugitive,
The slave who runs away,
And travels through the dreary night,
But hides himself by day.
G
G is the Gong, whose rolling sound,
Before the morning light,
Calls up the little sleeping slave,
To labor until night.
H
H is the Hound his master trained,
And called to scent the track
Of the unhappy Fugitive,
And bring him trembling back.
I
I is the Infant, from the arms
Of its fond mother torn,
And, at a public auction, sold
With horses, cows, and corn.
J
J is the Jail, upon whose floor
That wretched mother lay,
Until her cruel master came,
And carried her away.
K
K is the Kidnapper, who stole
That little child and mother--
Shrieking, it clung around her, but
He tore them from each other.
