Philip Freneau Stranger Poems
- 1. Eutaw Springs
At Eutaw Springs the valiant died;
Their limbs with dust are covered o'er;
Weep on, ye springs, your tearful tide;
How many heroes are no more!
... - 2. To Mr. Blanchard, The Celebrated Aeronaut In America
Nil mortalibus ardui est
Caelum ipsum petimus stultitia
Horace
... - 3. To The Memory Of The Brave Americans
Under General Greene, in South Carolina,
who fell in the action of September 8, 1781
... - 4. To Mr. Blanchard, The Celebrated Aeronaut In America
Nil mortalibus ardui est
Caelum ipsum petimus stultitia
Horace
... - 5. The Indian Burying Ground
In spite of all the learn'd have said;
I still my old opinion keep,
The posture, that we give the dead,
Points out the soul's eternal sleep.
