Match the meaning to the poetic expression.

Landing of the Pilgrim Fathers in New England

The breaking waves dash'd high

On a stern and rock-bound coast,

And the woods against a stormy sky

Their giant branches toss'd.

And the heavy night hung dark 5

The hills and waters o'er,

When a band of exiles moor'd their bark* *small ship

On the wild New England shore.

Not as the conqueror comes,

They, the true-hearted, came; 10

Not with the roll of the stirring drums,

And the trumpet that sings of fame;

Not as the flying come,

In silence and in fear;--

They shook the depths of the desert gloom 15

With their [songs] of lofty cheer.

Amidst the storm they sang,

And the stars heard and the sea;

And the sounding aisles of the dim woods rang

To the anthem of the free! 20

The ocean eagle soar'd

From his nest by the white wave's foam;

And the rocking pines of the forest roar'd--

This was their welcome home!

There were men with hoary hair 25

Amidst that pilgrim band;--

Why had they come to wither there,--

Away from their childhood's land?

There was woman's fearless eye,

Lit by her deep love's truth; 30

There was manhood's brow serenely high,

And the fiery heart of youth.

What sought they thus afar?

Bright jewels of the mine?

The wealth of seas, the spoils of war?-- 35

They sought a faith's pure shrine!

Ay, call it holy ground,

The soil where first they trod!

They have left unstain'd what there they found--

Freedom to worship God. 40
