Uncollected Poems of James Russell Lowell | ||
XXIX
Oh ye who ship supplies to struggling Greece,Or furnish flannel waistcoats for the slave,
And get a fraction of a thank apiece,
Telling the public just how much ye gave—
Do all your tender pricks of conscience cease,
Because there's none to call you “good” or “brave”?
238
Gain in the Newspapers a half-hour's “fame”?
