The image above is from the poem "The Sorrows of Yamba; or, the Negro Woman's Lamentation," published in 1795 by Hannah More. In the image the slave appears scared, or in shock. His body language shows he is very confused. This matches with the first stanza well as the first stanza explains never getting to return home again. "Parted many a thousand mile, Never, never to return." She is aware that she won't return and has to make this new environment her home. She even goes as far as wishing death upon herself as it is better than being a slave. When we reach the end of the lament, there is hope. Hope that she will peacully rest in death, and hope things will get better. All she learned about Christ she finds peace in him. The image shows confusion and fear corresponding with most of the poem. In the end there is no fear, just peace knowing she can eternally rest with God and this would never happen again.
