Their story of defiance and betrayal (Chief Osceola was captured under a flag of truce) inspired numerous writers, but few knew the meaning of loss and liberty as much as Whitman: "There is a time when speech is all too frail, There is a place where silence speaks the most: What is the word to paint a human wail, Or how heroic, speak when all is lost!".…
