"Tas STRIPES THE STARE zen vIcronr LED, .

As it waved on The storm beaten crag,
Or it danced DER the blue of the seas.
Now it beaIned on the eye of the brave,
Now ii crowned the fresh turf of their grave;
The boast of The lving,-the shroud of the dead
Its stripes and its stars still to victory led.
For the free who at Concord first drew
The red ord Of Anne fica's might
When the Eagle of Freedom first few
All unclaimed from her mountainous height
Not banner gave strength to their blow
Not trumpet cheered on to the fue,
They won fair trophy to wave over head,
Whose stripes and whose stars e'er to victory led
And as lpng as The day shall disclose
The red streak of our flag - the VIEW
Until lost is The TIM of the rose,
Or destroyed is the nightspangled blues
We swear round The banner to stand,
As OF old did the sres of the land;
lis last fiy rampant, that pile Of the dead
lis stripes aud its stars TO victory led.
Years have past, and the sons of the bold
Now the wine cup OF Jubilee raise,
Now the cannons loud greeting is rolled
To reply to one chorns Of praise.
Let US rise as drink to the brave,
