A Martyr of the Mohawk Valley: And Other Poems (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

Excerpt from A Martyr of the Mohawk Valley: And Other Poems

Friends, fortune, fame, my country and my kin, Ambition's dream, the beckoning hopes of youth, To lead this nation from the night of sin To the bright mom of truth.

So sweet it is to suffer for Thy sake, SO sweet to win one pagan soul to Thee, One bondsman's chains of ignorance to break, To set one captive free.
