Boston by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Boston Annotated

St. Bototlph's Town! Hither across the plains
&nbsp And fens of Lincolnshire, in garb austere,
&nbsp There came a Saxon monk, and founded here
&nbsp A Priory, pillaged by marauding Danes,
So that thereof no vestige now remains;
&nbsp Only a name, that, spoken loud and clear,
&nbsp And echoed in another hemisphere,
&nbsp Survives the sculptured walls and painted panes.
St. Botolph's Town! Far over leagues of land
&nbsp And leagues of sea looks forth its noble tower,
&nbsp And far around the chiming bells are heard;
So may that sacred name forever stand
&nbsp A landmark, and a symbol of the power,
&nbsp That lies concentred in a single word.
