3 the Key Of The Bastile preserved at Mount vernon.
Symbol Of the tyrsnt's rod,
Profanesi thou this hall
Where Freedoms mightiest champion trod,
Whom canst thy sight appal7
Full many noble hearts have shrunk
Before thy grating sound,
And many gallant spirits sunk,
In hopeless letters bound.
From vassa hrong to kings
All sges, ranks, and crocds--
Have felt that grippe which wrngs
The breast that iny bleeds.
Gray with old time,
The Base's walls
Were grim in Frances prime;
Wound freedoms clarion blast, when fails,
This bulwark OF the thronc--
This shrine dyed deep In blood
This Mooch fell, and not stone
Now marks where once 1t stood.
Then from that living tomb
Emerged a band of slaves;
Detected, ficndess, yelled in gloom,
They craved the earth for grsyss
Theirs was not lie
Theirs was not death
Almost they cursed the strife
That brought tree light and breath
Phantoms in human shape
Poor wre,ches, ref Of Heaven
tns,aincd by guilt, yet no escape
Was from that Hades given.
Victims OF dcspo, power,
And OF Its mnions, too,
No libcra,pg hour
Had ever dawned for you,
Did bgot kings clutch
Thy rude and blood stained guard
Or Ma,arin and Ricbelieu touch,
And I,ouyois ply thcc hard
Did generous Henry foul his hand
With thy repusive graspl
No, he had flung thee to that clan
More fit such thing to clasp
Almighty Justice End doomed
This Inonsirous den OF sin
To feel the storm that DER II doomed
Midst battles oudcst din.
Vengeance delayed burst forth at last,
When crime reeked up on high
Its perpetrators cowefd agbsu
Who dared Gods power defy
Down launched his glittering bolt
The massive walls were rent;
An incensed nations stern revolt
His minister, He sent
wrencbcd from tbiue iron keep,
To Washington consigned,
Around thee shall dark memories sleep,
To stimulate mankind.
Near by the chiefaln's dust,
Ihou seem ~ eceptre sftH,
But, broken, loathcd, accprsed,
Cans, serve no masters will.
Thy tongue is mute;
No prison doors swing numbering at thy turn,
No captive uembes at the brute
VINO bids his loved ones
Gone are the days Of dungeons.

The giant hand Of Liberty
Displays our stripes and stars.
