Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Negro Folk Rhymes: Wise and Otherwise, With a Study Being the expression of a race in, or just emerging from bondage, these songs may at first seem to some readers trivial and almost wholly devoid Of literary merit. In phraseology they may appear crude, lacking in that elegance and finish ordinarily associated with poetic excellence; in imagery they are at times exceedingly winter-starved, mediocre, common, drab, scarcely ever rising above the no happy environment of the singers. The outlook upon life and nature is, for the most part, one of imaginative simplicity and child-like naivete; super stitions crowd in upon a worldly wisdom that is elementary, practical, and obvious; and a warped and crooked human nature, developed and fostered by circumstances, shows frequently through the lines. What else might be expected? At the time when these rhymes were in process of being created the conditions under which the American Negro lived and labored were not calculated to inspire him with a desire for the highest artistic expression. Re stricted, cramped, bound in unwilling servitude, he looked about him in his miserable little world to see whatever of the beautiful or happy he might find; that which he discovered is pathetically slight, but, such as it is, it served to keep alive his stunted artist-soul under the most adverse circumstances.

Hard by the margin of that sea Whose sounds are mingled with his noble verse, Now lies the shell that never more will house The fine, strong spirit of my gifted friend. Yea, he who flashed upon us suddenly, A shining soul with syllables of fire, Who sang the first great songs these lands can claim To be their own; the one who did not seem To know what royal place awaited him Within the Temple of the Beautiful, Has passed away; and we who knew him, sit Aghast in darkness, dumb with that great grief, Whose stature yet we cannot comprehend: While over yonder churchyard, hearsed with pines, The night-wind sings its immemorial hymn, And sobs above a newly-covered grave.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rhymes Rant, 0 Death that I at last may lie at rest In old Ocean's arms upon my breast No clods, and neath my reposing head The jewelled pillow of Ocean's royal bed. Shrouded in her mighty depths of shade, Coffined in her eternal silence, let me be laid. The hollow pride that marks the resting-place Of all the nations of my race The sculptured grandeur wrought for Vanity's eyes Above the worm where mouldering beauty lies I'd see no more. The great, the clown, The ruler and lowliest subject, lie down In that vast necropolis of the sea, Equal, at last, in Death's final destiny. Distinction's haughty mark and wealth's shallow token The dead of the land may claim. The old Ocean Is more just. Within her mighty fold be dead are one; prince and peasant, young and old, Have rung for them the same mighty dirge Of Ocean's moaning wind and sighing surge. No priest is there, nor pomp, nor hollow show, Nor fashion's forced ceremonial flow Of tears. Ocean's sublimest anthems roll For rich and poor alike. And the tired soul Longing to lie down to a last long rest, Findeth no easier couch than old Ocean's breast.
