[ED: Taschenbuch], [PU: Forgotten Books], Excerpt from Longfellow Memorial Address: Before the Alumni of Bowdoin College, July 12, 1882 Our beautiful city of Portland has much to be proud of. What city ever had more? Besides giving to the world, through Bowdoin College, her Henry Boynton Smith, foremost among American scholars and thinkers, she has also given, and also through Bowdoin College, her Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, the noblest, the sweetest, the purest, the most beloved of modern poets. And now, as he passes away amidst the loving admiration of all the world, she may be justly proud, while all her spreading elms wave to him their fond adieus. Seven cities of Greece are said to have contended for the honor of being the birthplace of Homer. The greatest cities in America would be glad to have any show of evidence on their side in contending for Longfellow but the day will never come when his birthplace shall be forgotten. Cambridge, the residence of his later years and the place of his death, makes haste to honor him with statues and tributes of affectionate remembrance. Portland is moved by no jealousy, but rather looks on, with added pleasure, while she says: "He is my son, and I rejoice in your recognition of his greatness." The State of Maine is proud that Longfellow was a native of her soil, one whom she sent forth from her "rock-bound coast" to enrich, to teach and bless the world. America is proud that he was her own poet The English tongue, and all who speak it, are proud to claim him as theirs. Humanity is proud to claim the man and the poet for herself. Bowdoin College is proud in the pride of all the rest she rejoices in the honor of having given to the world one who is the glory of his city, the glory of his State, the glory of his country, the glory of all English-speaking peoples, the glory and the flower of human civilization.
