The New Colossus
By Emma Lazarus
Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame, with conquering limbs astride from land to land; Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame 5 is imprisoned lightning, and her name Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand glows world-wide welcome, her mild eyes command The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frames.
"Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp"! cries 10 she with silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door"!
Historical Background
The Colossus of Rhodes
was an ancient statue of a Greek giant.
The statue was destroyed in 226 bc.
