What heroes from the woodland sprung
When through tdo fresh awakened land,
The thrilling cry of freedom ruug,
And to the work Of warfare strung,
The ycoman's iron hand!
Hills flung the cry to hills around,
And ocean mart replied to mart,
And streams whose springs We're yet unfounG,
Pcai'd far away the startling sound
In The deep forests heart
Then marched the brave from rocky steep,
From mountain river swift and cold, :
The borders OF the stormy deep,
The Wales where gathered waters sleep,
Sent up the strong ard bold.
As if the very earth again
Grew quick with Gods creating breath,
And, from the sods of grove aud glen,
Rose ranks of lion hearted men
TO battle and to death.
The wife whose babe first smiled that day,
The fair fouI bride of yc3ter eve,
And aged sire and mltron gray,
Saw the loved warriors haste away,
And deemed it sin to gricvc.
Already had the strife begun,
Already blood on Concoris plain
Along the sprnging grass had run,
And blood had flowed at Lexington,
Like brooks OF April rain.
