Explore "Lines to Hon. Thaddeus Stevens" by Frances Ellen Watkins Harper on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Have the bright and glowing visions / Faded from thy longing sight, / Like the gorgeous tints of ev'n / Mingling with the shades of night?
Didst thou hope to see thy country / Wearing Justice as a crown, / Standing foremost 'mid the nations / Worthy of the world's renown?
