""The Emigrants"" is a poem written by Charlotte Turner Smith, published in 1793. The poem is a reflection on the experiences of emigrants leaving their homeland in search of a better life elsewhere. The poem is divided into four parts, each focusing on a different aspect of the emigrant experience. The first part describes the beauty of the homeland and the sadness of leaving it behind. The second part describes the difficulties of the journey, including the dangers of the sea and the harsh conditions on board ship. The third part focuses on the challenges of settling in a new land, including the language barrier and the struggle to find work. The final part reflects on the emotional toll of leaving one's home and the longing to return. Throughout the poem, Smith emphasizes the humanity of the emigrants, and their struggles and sacrifices in pursuit of a better life. The poem is a powerful reminder of the challenges faced by immigrants and the importance of empathy and understanding in our interactions with them.SLOW in the Wintry Morn, the struggling light Throws a faint gleam upon the troubled waves; Their foaming tops, as they approach the shore And the broad surf that never ceasing breaks On the innumerous pebbles, catch the beams.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
