Consider the title of the poem. How do the differences between the Statue of Liberty and the Colossus "of Greek fame" (mentioned in line 1) develop the overall meaning of the poem? Cite evidence from the poem in your answer.

Not like the brazen1 giant of Greek fame, 2

With conquering limbs astride from land to land;

Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand

A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame

Is the imprisoned lightning, 3 and her name

Mother of Exiles. 4 From her beacon-hand

Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command

The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.

"Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!"5 cries she

With silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor,

Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,

The wretched refuse6 of your teeming shore.

Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost7 to me,
