Book excerpt: Excerpt from Now and Then, a Discursive Poem: Delivered Before the Young Men's Institute, Hartford, Feb, 27th, 1855 Now and Then. My sight, bewildered, roams the crowded hall, Where, like a mantle, silence seems to fall. The stir is hushed. The rustling silks are still; Rebellious boots obey their owner's will; Bonnets, like forts, whose guns the bright eyes be, Now aim, point-blank, their batteries at me; And sterner eyes bear down upon my lips, As icebergs grim encounter peaceful ships. Expectant souls! Safe anchored here with Hope Stick to that anchor though it parts the rope! Though surging rhymes and waves poetic swell, Let Faith still cheer you with the cry 'all's well!'
