TIE AIR OF THE STAR SPANaLED BANNER,
This is called national air. The words OF the
song, as composed by Francis S. Key, are ma
tional, but for many years it was considered a
Baltimore song. The writer we'll remembers
being in q Baltimore theatre several times
where when the soveregns Of the pit were FESTIVE
and impatient, how suddenly they were put in a
delightful humor when the orchestra struck up
the Star Spangled Banner. In old song books
containing this song, the tune at the head was
when Bibo went down." 1t is, | believe, q
translation of q song of Anacron, sometimes
called Anacreon in Heaven the song mentions
a very different place. 1t is either English or
Irish. | do not know the history OF the trans
lation. Lempriere says Anacreon' S odeS were
first published by Fl. Stephens, Will an elegant
translation. The last editions of Anacreon are
that of Maittaire, 4to London 1925, OF which
only one hundred copies were printed. and the
very correct one Of Barnes - mo. Cantab l72l
to which may be added that of Brunck - mo.
Argentor ITS. If any one has copy of an
old book called the Masonic minstrel, tho song
of Bibo will be found there Perhaps it can be
found in other books now out Of print. Is it
not pitiable that so great q nation, shortly IN
all probability, to be tho greatest on the earth,
should have no really fine national DIR? Here
is the song. W.
When Bibo went down to the regions below,
Where Lethe and Styx round eternity flow,
He walked in the boat, and he would BE- rowed
back,
For bis soul it was thirsty, and wanted some
slack.
But Charon replied, you we're drunk when you
died,
And ne er felt the pains that to death arc
allied
Take me back, replied Bibo, mind not the
pain,
And if was drunk, let me die once again.
Forget, replied Charon those regions Of strife,
Drink of Lethe divine, It's the fountain OF life,
Where the soul is newborn, and all past Is 4
dream,
+ en- the gods themsclVcssip ofthe care drown
ing stream.
The gods replied Bibo-drink water who
will
The maxims Of mortals Ill ever fulfil;
So pirate not to me OF your Lethe divine,
Our Lethe on earth is bumper Of wine,
At length grim old Cerberus gave loud roar,
When the crazy old bark struck the Styglan
shore;
Then Bibo got up, and be staggered TO land,
And iostled the ghosts, as they stood on the
strand,
Says Charon, tell you. tbs vain to rebel,
For you're banished from earth, and shut up
in hell;
That's truth replied Bibo, l know by this
Fer It's hell upon earth to be wanting some
wine.
