Longfellow’s Poetic Works
• Longfellow remains one of the most popular
of American poets, primarily for his simplicity
of style and theme and for his technical
expertise, but also for his role in the creation
of an American mythology. His verse was also
instrumental in re-establishing a public
audience for poetry in the United States.

Rizmercs9508
Not enjoyment, and not sorrow,
Is our destined end or way;
But to act, that each tomorrow
Find us farther than today.

In the world's broad field of battle,
In the bivouac of Life,
Be not like dumb, driven cattle!
Be a hero in the strife!
