FRAGMENT OF BALLAD.

Woe to the unborn sons of the Tracies!
(Say what redemption is left through all time)
O could they reach to the land where God's grace is,
Baffled and faint with the storm-wind's embraces,
(The wind that wails for their forefather's crime
With ever the wind and rain in their faces,—
Never again till the end of time.
