THE GIRTONIAN The Children's land before me lies, Pale wasted shades Hit past my eyes And Hee away, Their backs they turn me as they go- Sad Children full of grief and woe- Yet once so gay! They tremble if a voice is heard, They shrink and shiver at a word With dropping tear, They try to tell me, whispering soft, How rough the path, and fearful oft- Their words I scarce can hear. O turn, turn back to light of day! O turn you back while yet you may From bitter toil. For Furies in this desert dwell, Who spur us on with purpose fell With work our hands to soil! Lo! as I gaze an awful form Swift drives them on like leaves in storm From out my view, They stretch their hands in suppliance wild But onward, weeping, goes each child, I turn to meadows new.
