If your Snark be a Boojum! for then
You will softly and suddenly vanish away,
And never be met with again!”

That slip from heaven at night and softly fall
Has been picked up with stones to build a wall.”

An everlasting song, a singing tree,
Caroling softly souls of slavery,
What they were, and what they are to me,
Caroling softly souls of slavery.”
