Blessed Native Institution—Albany
one tiny half-caste girl a chance they’ll give
she has not strength yet to scrub, said he
but will make a useful woman if she lives
Objects of His Excellency’s Kindness, saved
shipped between the Colonies to marry
nuclear-family plots sown from this trade
domesticated, raised to reap God’s mercy
