Ultima Thule and Ultima Thule: In the Harbor - Two Books in One by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

A collection of poems, folk songs, and sonnets on various subjects and life experiences, including an ode to President Garfield, a poem about the four lakes of Madison, and poems lamenting the passings of Bayard Taylor and R. H. Dana, and the untimely death of the poet, Robert Burns. "The Children's Crusade" was left unfinished. It is founded upon an event which occurred in the year 1212. An army of twenty thousand children, mostly boys, under the lead of a boy of ten years, named Nicolas, set out from Cologne for the Holy Land. When they reached Genoa only seven thousand remained. There, as the sea did not divide to allow them to march dry-shod to the East, they broke up. Some got as far as Rome; two ship-loads sailed from Pisa, and were not heard of again; the rest straggled back to Germany.
