	New Georgia Encyclopedia: Sidney Lanier (1842-1881)
		Sidney Lanier was born in Macon on February 3, 1842.
		Today Sidney Lanier is most noted for his experimental musical renderings of Georgia's fields, rivers, and shores in such poems as "Corn" (1875), "The Song of the Chattahoochee" (1877), and "The Marshes of Glynn" (1879).
		Lanier found his purest voice in the religious vision of "The Marshes of Glynn." Set in southeastern Glynn County, the poem begins with a rhythmic description of the thick marsh as the narrator feels himself growing and connecting with the sinews of the marsh itself.

	Sidney Lanier
		From Lanier's perspective as a nineteenth-century Southern writer, the Anglo-American's concern is money, so he is threatened with a fine, while for the "law-abiding Teuton" (234) it is enough to know that riding one's horse across the bridge is forbidden.
		Lanier even mentioned little Mission San Juan Capistrano, situated a few miles further down the San Antonio River, but he only observed that it was in a state of dilapidation.
		Lanier described its origin from a spring, located two or three miles north of downtown, but once the small stream exits the area it becomes little more than a drainage ditch, which the city has covered with concrete.
