When crush'd and dying will be found.

One Rame in every hall Of State
In Southern homes, DER Southern tombs
Where love keeps watch and wait.
Tho dead. the flowers, yet far more rare
Their fragrance ON the evening air.
Nesting within vast ocean shores
A group of stars-I mark their shine
Der halt the world, with heartfelt pride,
One bright with beams, to me divine,

Dear Missssippi-it is thine.
Our native State, no fonder prayer
On wings of love, to heav'n hath flown,
Than mine for thee, the favor'd land
Where beauty builds her throne.
While every breeze that fingers there
From Heaven rich blessing seems to bear.
