Indian Wars, Battles & Massacres Across America – Legends of America (original) (raw)

I am driven away from home
Driven up the red waters
Let us all go
Let us all go die together

Sioux Warriors.

No loopholes now are framing
Lean faces, grim and brown;
No more keen eyes are aiming
To bring the redskin down.

The plough team’s trappings jingle
Across the furrowed field,
And sounds domestic mingle
Where valor hung its shield.

But every wind careering
Seems here to breathe a song—
A song of brave frontiering—
A saga of the strong.

— Arthur Chapman
