Edition Description: |
[The following poem was first printed in December, 1862, and was addressed by the author to Garibaldi, after the defeat of his gallant attempt to revolutionize the States of Rome. The heroic chief was lying in prison, as will be remembered, suffering under a severe wound received at Aspromonte, which at that time threatened his life, but from which he is now partially recovered. A portrait of Garibaldi, as he appeared while in prison and wounded, was given in the Weekly at the same time that the poem was published. We need not apologize for reprinting these grand verses, which appeal to the heart of every lover of his country.] |
First Sentence: |
Oh, thou hero, Garibaldi! crowned with sufferings Promethean! |
