Columbla's fairest chfld,
And on the land that he ador'd
Irdulgent fortune smiled.
lie nobly chceted his countrymeu
when all their hopes dim
His heart was for las country then;
Hor heait Ia for him.
And now his honor ed ashes rest
Calm as the tombstone o. 'eT him,
Within the grateful breast
OF that bright land that bore hini.
High DER this land fair freedom aoats,
Though now her sword - ahsath'd,
And hufhed are those Wild varlke notes
Which once Of battle breathA
Prosperity undimmed may smile,
Nor win her smiles gecieose
Or aught disturb her calmneAs, while
Her throne IL shared by Peace
End while the prayers OF ju.t and brave
Are heard in heav'n above,
Our starry banner stii will wuys
High DER the iand We love.
