Poem by Hamlin Garland

Pioneers

THEY rise to mastery of wind and snow;
They go like soldiers grimly into strife
To colonize the plain. They plough and sow,
And fertilize the sod with their own life,
As did the Indian and the buffalo.

Andrew Paterson Pioneers ("They came of bold and roving stock that would not fixed abide")
