For the dsy-star of Liberty guided the way.

The deeds since achicv'd in proud triumph are told

In whom ten thousand graces shine,
Bright effiuence of the skies
While hnk'd in love, shining cham,
Each Of our band reyeres thy name,
And bids thy glories rise.

The patriots pride, the soldiers toast,
The freeman's frmest prop;
Offspring Of Reason, Virtues friend,
Thy smiles shall with our psans blend
And mingle with our hope.
How sweetly are thy councils giv'n
Like genial drops distill'd from heaV'n,
And like angelic strains
Thy vot'ries round thy temple throng,
Attend thy voice and bless thy song,
And venerate thy aims.
Assembled round our council fire,
Thy sentiments our hearts inspire,
Thy purcst maxims guide,
Our will is left to thee alone,
No mandates from gilded throne,
Across our feelings stride.

From realms of everlasting fame,
And shores Of endless day,
A messenger divinely came,
And Wisdom mark'd her way.
Twas Truth, whose fair and gentle form
Invites us TO embrace
Twas she whose heavily smiles adorn
And bless the human race.
She came kind and willing friend,
Commissioned from above,
Her maxims with our hearts to blend.
And rivet chains of love.
She came like Soils enlight'ning beams,
1'irradiate the mind,
While errors, back in darksome streams
Upon themselves inclin'd.
Back to their sable, flmy bed,
Where rank disorder reigns,
Where superstition rears her head,
And slavery complains.
Then towering truth her banners wav'd
And call'd her children nigh
Columbia saw herself enslav'd,
And bust the painful tie.
Illum'd by Truth to Freedoms shrine
We now an of'ring bring
To her, who in herself sublime,
Inspires oyr hearts TO sing.
Genus of light Hail, heavily truth,
Exalted be thy name
Direct our aged, and our youth,
To propagate thy fame.
Let sons of darkness view the light
That glows around thy throne,
And in an active band unite
To make thy glories known.
