A great man of its doer.
Hymns
By Whittier, John Greenleaf
To whom shall men thyself compare,
Since common models fail 'em,
Save classic goose of ancient Rome,
Or sacred ass of Balaam?
The gabble of that wakeful goose
Saved Rome from sack of Brennus;
The braying of the prophet's ass
Betrayed the angel's menace!
Artist: Whittier, John Greenleaf
Year: 1800
