P, 6, MANY having solicited copies of my
pr MUM Ode to Peace, Motto "God is Love-"
tune, "Star spangled Banner and being
applicable, give it to the public, hoping 1t
ma make melody in their hearts and voices:
Descend Heavenly dove, from the regions above,
And teach erring men the true value OF love;
Bring the branch in thy bill, that peace may DIS
That friendship and love each bosom may fill.
Let no deadly strife,
Destroy human llfei
Let our motto be peace,
Not war to the knife.
Thus peace and goodwill will prevail on each
And the nations ofesrth shall learn war no more.
should man--noble msn-With reason possessed,
Destroy his own race, even worse than the beast'
They never raise armies their own race to KILL,
Nor count il as glory their hearts blood to spill
Men then should unite,
And do what is right,
Thus prove to the world,
IT.
Thus Columbia's proud banner, forever unturled,
Would give peace to the UnioD' and peace to the
world.
Let wars deadly blasts, be quickly o'erthrown,
And friendship and love in Protuson be strewn'
And the bond of affection again be entwined,
Round our brothers and sisters, and all OF man
kind.
Thus joined, heart and hand,
We firmly would stand,
Unmoved by the tempest,
Which sweeps Ger our land.
Thus, Columbia's proud banner, forever un-
Would give peace to the Union, and peace to
the world
The press should speal, out in loud thunder
OF the horrors Of war, forwheh the earth groans,
The gag be removed from all who love peace,
That the tumult Of war forever may cease.
Let traitors beware,
Nor disunion dare,
Nor Seward, nor Webb,
Again interfere.
Thus Columba's proud banner, forever unfurled,
Would give peace to the Union, and peace to
the world.
SUPPLEMENT OF ODE TO PEACE.
The nations Of earth should agree on a plan,
OF peace and goodwill, love and kindness TO
man,
Dissgreements submit, and arbitTate all,
Disputes soon would cease, and contentious
would fall,
If all would agree,
Two hundred should be
The number selected
ArbitratOrs to bo;
! And peace, love and truth, on each banner IN
furled,
'Twouid spread wisdom and joy all over the
world.
/ Differing nations thus from the two hundred
should choose,
! Eaee one Of them ten, all matters to close.
| Should any refuse the award to obey,
| Every nation on earth an embargo should lay.
! Thus nations would stand,
On the sea and the land,
! In friendship united,
! In one happy band,
! With peace love and truth on each banner un-
furled,
! Spreading wisdom and JOY all over the world.
