We say no cleaning OF her household fires
A cloud hsd hung thy and snd language er,
Until my pictured thoughts broke on our eyes
Like AZ Aurora Of thy native skies
Tny name is loved through all our fair vide lsnd
Where the logcsbins OF our western wooos
Are scattered through the dim Old soltodes
Where glowing with young life, our citss stand
There 40 thy white winged messengers, az went
Of old the angels to the pstrsTcb's tenI

The homage Of unIumbered hearts 10 thee.
