George Moses Horton Quote

Alas! Am I born for this,
To wear this slavish chain?
Deprived of all created bliss,
Through hardship, toil and pain!


The Hope of Liberty. On Liberty and Slavery


Alas! Am I born for this, To wear this slavish chain? Deprived of all created bliss, Through hardship, toil and pain!

Alas! Am I born for this, To wear this slavish chain? Deprived of all created bliss, Through hardship, toil and pain!

Alas! Am I born for this, To wear this slavish chain? Deprived of all created bliss, Through hardship, toil and pain!

Alas! Am I born for this, To wear this slavish chain? Deprived of all created bliss, Through hardship, toil and pain!
