There is no holIer spot on earth
Ia islo. in continent or zone,
Thans consccrated by the birtn
OF Washington.
When tyrants claimed the land and sea,
A man.degrading corrupt race,
And scarcely left for liberty
A resting place.
The Goddess left the unhallowed land,
And westward winged her lingering fight,
And poured on groep Colombia's strand
Her glorious light.
And round tho soul ennobling fame
From forest, mountain, brake and glen,
Our bold and fearless FATHERS came
True hearted men.
And He the glory Of his land
A nobler and q braYer, none
Fer grusped the Patriots vengeful brand,
Than WASHINGTON.
Uproso and with his valiant few
Columbia's s~ons-blessd freedOm's shield,
0'erthrew the tyrants hireling crew,
Upon The field.
And freedom smiled s%orenely bright-
The starry banner was unfurl'd,
A blessing, and u beacon light
To oil the world.
From every cline, from every land,
The prosecuted Of our race,
All seek Columbia's happy land"
And fnd a place.
And north and south, and east and west
The eonquering Eagle yet shall soar.
Till all the world 3 With freedom blest
FROM shore to shore.
For Washington no columns raise
Fngravcn with his deathless name
The world, the vide world is
His place Of fame.
The patriot true-the warrior brave
Famo's noble aud eternal heir
All nations gather round his grave
And worship there.
