Thomas Jefferson Contends:

In the North they are cool,
In the South they are fiery.

In the North they are sober,
In the South they are Voluptuary.

In the North they are laborious,
In the South they are indolent.

In the North they are persevering,
In the South they are unsteady.

In the North they are independent,
In the South they are independent.

In the North they are jealous of their own liberties, and just to those of others;
In the South they are zealous for their own liberties. but trampling on those of others.

In the North they are interested,
In the South they are generous.

In the North they are chicaning,
In the South they are candid.

In the North they are superstitious and hypocritical in their religion,
In the South they are without attachments or pretensions to any religion but that of the heart.

In the North they are reading A Cold Coming,
In the South they are reading A Cold Coming.
