Recompense by E M Brainerd
Poem opens with a speaker who contrasts life lived through true struggle with a life without doubt fear and hardship. It argues real courage and contentment come only from suffering and effort, challenging readers to measure virtue by resilience and depth of feeling.

The piece argues that focusing on gross tax figures misleads readers about real relief for individuals. It notes that saving one million dollars in taxes in a populous state is a tiny fraction of total tax revenue and compares per person spending on tobacco, amusements, cosmetics, and luxuries to taxation costs, urging fiscal reform focused on economy rather than big gross sums.
