    Toussaint, the most unhappy Man of Men!
    Whether the whistling Rustic tend his plough
    Within thy hearing, or thy head be now
    Pillowed in some deep dungeon's earless den; -
    O miserable Chieftain! where and when
    Wilt thou find patience? Yet die not; do thou
    Wear rather in thy bonds a cheerful brow:
    Though fallen Thyself, never to rise again,
    Live, and take comfort. Thou hast left behind
    Powers that will work for thee; air, earth, and skies;
    There's not a breathing of the common wind
    That will forget thee; thou hast great allies;
    Thy friends are exultations, agonies,
    And love, and Man's unconquerable mind.
