This item is printed on demand. Paperback. 76 pages. Dimensions: 9.7in. x 7.4in. x 0.2in.This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1884 edition. Excerpt: . . . their fathers sowing. We have quoted Derozios last public appeal to Eurasians. Probably, the last poem he wrote, is one which did not appear in print till the January of 1832, after his death, when it appeared, along with other contributions of East Indians, in the Orient Pearl, an annual, the volume being inscribed to Sir Charles Metcalfe as a testimony of esteem of the editors for his enlightened views and liberal policy. The poem Independence is not in the collected edition of his poetical works, compiled by Mr. Owen Aratoon. The verses are not in his best style, but as they breathe some far away echo of the worry and the fever and the fret through which his manly independence and indomitable spirit rose, we reproduce them here: --INDEPENDENCE. Look on that lamp which seems to glide Like a spirit oer the stream, Casting upon the darkened tide Its own mysterious beam. My heart, --and shall that little lamp, My glorious image be; Shall the night so mirk, the stream so damp Be lit and cheered by thee Lo! in the breath of the tyrant wind The trembling flame looks wan And pale, as if fear had seized its mind; It fades, alas, tis gone! And wilt thou tremble so, my heart, When the mighty breathe on thee And shall thy light like this depart Away! it cannot be. In the autumn of 1831 an unusually high rate of mortality prevailed in Calcutta and its suburbs, the chief causes of death being cholera, dysentery, and fever. In the village of Baraset near Barrackpore whole families had been swept away; and in the vicinity of Bhowanipore nearly a third of the inhabitants had died. In the villages between the Salt Lake and Calcutta the mortality was not less great. Every day during November there were carried to Kalighaut about fifty dead. . .
