"American muse, whose strong and diverse heart So many men have tried to understand But only made it smaller with their art Because you are as various as your land, As mountainous - deep, as flowered with blue rivers, Thirsty with deserts, buried under snows, As native as the shape of Navajo quivers And native, too, as the sea-voyaged rose."

Short Story Classics Stephen Vincent Benet The Devil and Daniel Webster by Stephen Vincent Benet It's a story they tell in the border country, where Massachusetts joins Vermont and New Hampshire. There was a man named Jabez Stone, lived at Cross Corners, New Hampshire. He wasn't a bad man to start with, but he was an unlucky man. If he planted corn, he got borers; if he planted potatoes, he got blight. He had good enough land, but it didn't prosper him; he had a decent wife and children, but the more children he had, the les there was to feed them. If stones cropped up in his neighbor's field, boulders boiled up in his; if he had a horse with spavins, he'd trade it for one with the staggers and give something extra. There's some folks bound to be like that, apparently. But one day Jabez Stone got sick of the whole business. Then he felt a kind of queerness come over him at having said what he'd said; though, naturally, being a New Hampshireman, he wouldn't take it back. But, all the same, when it got to be evening and, as far as he could see, no notice had been taken, he felt relieved in his mind, for he was a religious man. But notice is always taken, sooner or later, just like the Good Book says. And, sure enough, next day, about suppertime, a soft-spoken, dark-dressed stranger drove up in a handsome buggy and asked for Jabez Stone. After that, all of a sudden, things began to pick up and prosper for Jabez Stone. His cows got fat and his horses sleek, his crops were the envy of the neighborhood, and lightning might strike all over the valley, but it wouldn't strike his barn. Pretty soon, he was one of the prosperous people of the county; they asked him to stand for selectman, and he stood for it; there began to be talk of running him for state senate. All in all, you might say the Stone family was as happy and contented as cats in a dairy. And so they were, except for Jabez Stone.

From The Bookman Anthology of Verse (1922) . Read a biographical note Azrael's Bar Azrael's Bar He stood behind the counter, mixing drinks; Pride for the old, who like their liquor tart, False joy, as merry as a bed of pinks. He had the eyes of a sarcastic lynx And in his apron was a small black dart With which he stirred, secretive and apart, His shaker, till it rang with poisonous clinks. I fumbled for the rail. "The same, with gin? Love triple star you like the velvet kick?" I shook with the blind agues of the sick. Then, through lost worlds, his voice, " Fini , old friend?" He poured black drops out, cold as dead men's skin: "So? This is what we always recommend "
