Book 4, Epigram 7: Our fathers did but use the world befroe BY THOMAS
BASTARDOur fathers did but use the world befroe,And having used did leave
the same to us.We spill whatever resteth to their store.What can our heirs
inherit but our curse?For we have sucked the sweet and sap away,And sowed
consumption in the fruitful ground;The woods and forests clad in rich
arrayWith nakedness and baldness we confound.We have defaced the lasting
monuments,And caused all honour to have end with us;The holy temples feel
our ravishments.What can our heirs inherit but our curse?The world must
end, for men are so accurst;Unless God end it sooner, they will first

this new country of mine called America where anything can happen, Even a
slob like me to get a girl for the low cost of $52 a night

Its actually a lyric poem, as it rhymes. The ryhme scheme being abab. I
guess it symbolizes how the Pilgrims were one of the first group of people
to come here, and that made others realize that they should come too.

Just wondering how others see the symbolism in "Immigrants" poem and how
they would analyze it as far as theme, free verse, etc.
