The waste where Memnon's empire lay.
Spirituals
By Whittier, John Greenleaf
Nor have I, from thy hallowed tide,
O Jordan! heard the low lament,
Like that sad wail along thy side
Which Israel's mournful prophet sent!
Nor thrilled within that grotto lone
Where, deep in night, the Bard of Kings
Felt hands of fire direct his own,
Artist: Whittier, John Greenleaf
Year: 1860
