第1章 SHOWING THAT SLAVERY'S SHADOWS FALL EVEN THERE
Dedicated to Pauline Augusta Coleman Gates and Henry Louis Gates, Sr.
In Memory of Marguerite Elizabeth Howard Coleman, and Gertrude Helen Redman Gates "I know That care has iron crowns for many brows;
That Calvaries are everywhere, whereon Virtue is crucified, and nails and spears Draw guiltless blood; that sorrow sits and drinks At sweetest hearts, till all their life is dry;
That gentle spirits on the rack of pain Grow faint or fierce, and pray and curse by turns;
That hell's temptations, clad in heavenly guise And armed with might, lie evermore in wait Along life's path, giving assault to all."--HOLLAND.
