    The Negro's Complaint
    A very touching piece referring to the time when the negroes were torn from their home, wives, and children, and sold in the slave market.
    A golden-eyed Titan o'er ocean was peeping,
    And West India odours gave health in the breeze,
    Beneath a palm shade, a poor Negro sat weeping.
    His fortune bewailing in words such as these:
    Oh! hard is my fate that I ever was born,
    And cursed be the evening in which I was torn
    From friends, wife and parents, and since left forlorn
    A stranger to comfort, joy, freedom and ease!
    11
    From youth, in my own native forest secluded,
    And bred to the use of the club, bow and spear,
    Upon my oppressors I never intruded,
    And injured, thru' life, but the wild bird and dear,
    Till white men, one evening, by trifles betrayed me
    From my peaceful home, and a prisoner made me
    And hither, o'er ocean, a captive conveyed me,
    And sold me to monsters, who torture me here!
