Poems by William Gilmore Simms
The Swamp Fox
... So clear your swords and spur your steeds, ...
Fort Wagner
... Were worse than death--perdition! Should they fail, ...
The Angel Of The Church
... Yields their fond choice, from THRONES and POWERS ...
Ode--"Our City by the Sea."
... Dread the crash which follows as each Titan mass is struck-- ...
Song In March
... With a wild love he seeks young Summers charms &emsp ...
Hast Thou A Song For A Flower.
... II. For her the sweet music thou bringest ...
The Decay Of A People
... If that we waste, in vain walled town and lofty tower! ...
Blessings On Children
... In the daylight, in the starlight, still with thought that freely flies, ...
Flight To Nature
... And, through the long, long summer hours, ...
Ode--"Do Ye Quail?"
... Better fall, grappling fast with the foe, to their graves, ...
Ode--"Shell the Old City! Shell!"
... When, through the clouds that lower, ...
The Lost Pleiad
... The sorrowful vault!how lingers, in the hope that night &emsp ...
The Bard
... Have scaled the heights of cloud and bared their breasts of flame ...
Morris Island
... Through the protracted struggle and close fight, ...
Sumter In Ruins
... III. What's loss of den, or nest, or home, ...
