Show Poet Immortalized Hemp. Longfellow has immortalized the use of hemp in his famous poem. "The Eopewalk," in which he makes us see, the rope made Into a swing for two lovely maidens, the tightrope for the tired, spangled girl of the cheap street vaudeville show, the cord that the old bell ringer pulls when he rings tha noonday hour ; through his eyes we sea the schoolboy flying his kite, the farmer's farm-er's wife drawing a bucket of cool water wa-ter from the well on the old homestead and many other beautiful pictures. |
