Stephen Crane: Once a man clambering to the housetops
Updated February 28, 2017 | Infoplease Staff

Once a man clambering to the housetops
Appealed to the heavens.
With a strong voice he called to the deaf
spheres;
A warrior's shout he raised to the suns.
Lo, at last, there was a dot on the clouds,
And?at last and at last?
?God?the sky was filled with armies.
Appealed to the heavens.
With a strong voice he called to the deaf
spheres;
A warrior's shout he raised to the suns.
Lo, at last, there was a dot on the clouds,
And?at last and at last?
?God?the sky was filled with armies.
