The boy stood on the burning deck,
Whence all but he had fled;
The flame that lit the battle's wreck,
Shone round him o'er the dead.

Yet beautiful and bright he stood,
As born to rule the storm;
A creature of heroic blood,
A proud though childlike form.

The boy?Oh! where was he?
MAsk of the winds, that far around
With fragments strewed the sea;?

On a stern and rock-bound coast,

What sought they thus afar?
Bright jewels of the mine?
The wealthy of seas, the spoils of war??
They sought a faith's pure shrine!

Ay, call it holy ground,
The soil where first they trod;
They have left unstained what there they found,?
Freedom to worship God.

And the heavy night hung dark
The hills and waters o'er,
When a band of exiles moored their bark
On the wild New England shore.

(Felicia Dorothea Hemans (1783-1835), British poet. The Landing of the Pilgrim Fathers (l. 5-8). . . Family Book of Best Loved Poems, The. David L. George, ed. (1952) Doubleday & Company.)
