Explore "Our Hero" by Frances Ellen Watkins Harper on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Onward to her destination, / O'er the stream the Hannah sped, / When a cry of consternation / Smote and chilled our hearts with dread.
Wildly leaping, madly sweeping, / All relentless in their sway, / Like a band of cruel demons / Flames were closing 'round our way.
