From “The Village Blacksmith” by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

1 Under a spreading chestnut tree
2 The village smithy stands;
3 The smith, a mighty man is he,
4 With large and sinewy hands;
5 And the muscles of his brawny arms
6 Are strong as iron bands.

7 His hair is crisp, and black, and long,
8 His face is like the tan;
9 His brow is wet with honest sweat,
10 He earns whate’er he can,
11 And looks the whole world in the face,
12 For he owes not any man.

13 Week in, week out, from morn till night,
14 You can hear his bellows blow;
15 You can hear him swing his heavy sledge,
16 With measured beat and slow,
17 Like a sexton ringing the village bell,
18 When the evening sun is low.

sexton:a person who takes care of a church

He leaned his head against the wall; his eyes were shut, his hands clasped in each other, and his body seemed to be sustained in an upright position merely by the cellar-door against which he rested his left shoulder. the lethargy into which he was sunk seemed scarcely interrupted by my feeling his hand and his forehead. his throbbing temples and burning skin indicated a fever . . there was only one circumstance that hindered me from forming an immediate determination in what manner this person should be treated. my family consisted of my wife and a young child. our servant-maid had been seized, three days before, by the reigning malady, and, at her own request, had been conveyed to the hospital. we ourselves enjoyed good health, and were hopeful of escaping with our lives. our measures for this end had been cautiously taken and carefully adhered to. they did not consist in avoiding the receptacles of infection, for my office required me to go daily into the midst of them; nor in filling the house with the exhalations of gunpowder, vinegar, or tar. they consisted in cleanliness, reasonable exercise, and wholesome diet. who is the story’s first-person narrator
