Poem by James Weldon Johnson

Voluptas

    To chase a never-reached mirage
    Across the hot, white sand,
    And choke and die, while gazing on
    Its green and watered strand.

1. An Explanation
2. Brer Rabbit, You's de Cutes' of 'Em All
3. And the Greatest of These Is War
4. Down by the Carib Sea. 4. The Lottery Girl
5. The Ghost of Deacon Brown
