ODE 10 LIBKRTY.
DY RopkdCE.

The ARRtceTS1ry of datsrlea7s Independence.
When Freedoms Goddess, sposles and alone,
descended from her star gemed azure throne,
She tapped her pinions DER the Eastern cline,
Then struck her anthem 10 the march OF time.
The hills and dales and fertile plains.
The Alps sublime. where wildness reigns,
All nature caught the deathless song,
OF Freedom from Oppressions wrong.
In ancient days, when Athens yet was young.
Or Rome had caught the strain her poets s,,ne
She perched her their domes and plitteyinC s;re,
And gazed with watchfu eyes on sons and ssrss.
TIL some were taught by nature 8 laws,
To draw the sword in Freedoms cause
And strike, despite the tyrart's power
For Liberty, the PATRIOTS dover.
Rome, once the potent mistress of the world,
Could see her banners 10 the air unfured,
Her armies proud and navies of the seas.
Return with trophies Of her victories.
Athens, too, confessed her say,
And Sparta saw her sunny day;
The fair, enchanting Grecian Isles.
Once pSospered meath her genial smiles
But o, how changed the aspect Of those DAYS,
Now one lone spot IN Europe sings her praiee:
lis SwitZeriand-and she alone Is free
In all that mighty iand-weep Liberty.
May every heart that warns breast
Be in the cause of Fresdom pressed
ELL all beyond the rolling main,
Shall own her guardian power again
Twas proud ambition not content with rish,.
Cast DER those days long chaotic nieht:
Beneath her poisonous, surgins, mighty wave
Was found the patriot soldiers silent grave
But as the PhPniJ dies in flame
Another rises TO its name,
So Freedoms spirit SCARED on hirh
The germ OF Immortality.
TO Washington, f'ie great, the good, who sIeeps
Meath that sequestered mound where sjory weeps
She gave the laurel wreath OF Freedoms fame
And with the patriots honor crowned his name:
Reared in our Monumental city
A marble cenOtaph Of beauty.
Placed on its top sculptured stone,
Which speaks TO Heaven Of Washington.
TIE Lafayette, Columba's faithful friend.
May every freeman's voice in thanks ascend
And millions yet unknown, may they be tan,h,
That men like these can never be forgot
While gushing fountains freely flow,
The grass springs up and fowrets grow
Or while one word Of Freedoms char
is written on The human heart.
May all the nations on this mighty spbere-
Spirits IN Heaven where pleasures streams are clear.
Behold the starry flag throughout the world,
In every cline 10 Freedoms breeze unfiuled.
kissing the light of Liberty,
Protected by The powers that be-
Till Kings and tyrant monarch fall
And Freedoms Goddess reigns DER all,
Proud, glorious, happy land, America;
Made so by deeds Of this triumphant day
whose annual visit must and will mpart
a nood OF glory T., the patriots heart;
10 thee and TO our noble sires
Until this lamp of life expires
Wen send up incense pure and free
