And lay the monster low;
In Code great name do 1 demand,
To all be freedom given,
That peace and joy may fill the land,
And songs go up to Heaven.
I am an Aboiitionist.
No threats shall awe my soul,
No perils cause me to desist,
No brides my acts control;

In sunshine and in shade,
And raise NY voice for liberty
OF nought on earth afraid.
