And dear the memory
OF those, who nobly sought herl -. s...
When war awuke with din and smoke,
By numerous foes surrounded,
With bartered life, ,they braved the strife,
In death their arms were grounded
How blest the memory . a......

The foes of liberty,
And breathed her name in dying!
Take, holy Liberty,
Their story on thy pinion, -
And wing it high and free,
Throughout thy proud dominion!
Their blood was free and warm for thee,
From fearless bosons streaming,
Like stars, on thine, their deeds must shine,
To all the nations beaming,
Then, keep thy balmy wing
Still growing broad and broader, M.s.s..
Aud let tn ir story ring.
To Eartn's remotest border.
Fair daughter of the skies,
As million after million,
In other days. shall rise
Beneath thy wide pavilion,
There may they find their names enshrined,
Their memory, green and spreading,
That all may know to whom they owe
The gifts thy hand is shedding!

Here may thy glory be
Still pure and never fadlngl
