Hungarian flag as the banner of liberty.
We will preserve that glory, and satisfy that
expectation.
1t is principally on you that the eyes of
the world are turned, for your number is
great. The arms are in your hands; a
generous blood in your veins; the love of
the country. and the thirst of vengeance on
her executicners is in your breasts. Your
task is glorious and easy; for you are ma

From Rome to the Sicilians-fom the

Decking with beauty the dark brown earth?

IT'S not from her.
We COME from the land called the Spirits home
Where angels in beauty and gladness roam;
Each virtue. each grace, in that bright sphere,
Shows forth in the form of a Flower here.

But wherefore so far from your native sky.
Come ye midst nlortals to bloom and dies
Mark We that here the chill winds blow.
And Death that your own realms never know,
Makes all his own!
We know of the sorrows that gather here,
Ut the bGghted hope-of the flowing tear
And It's to beguile from care awhile
To brighten the earth with the Angels smile,
That we are come.
The lilly, the rose, the violets breath.
Yield to the monarch that you call Death:
But fear not his power, and of this be sure,
He can change but the iorm-the spirit pure
