wehave read In ancient story,
Carven In words OF gold,
OF temple grand and hoary
Battered, and worn, and Old;
Ever the iretted frieEes
That crowned the sacred shrine
Were fan ned by the periumed Lreezes
That blew DER Aventine.
That was the shrine immortal
OF Vesta's wondrous fame;
Under the carven portal,
While seasons wax and wane.
They told how, DER the mountain,
The Great Twin Brethren came
To quaiT from the hallowed fountain
Hard by the sacred flannel
That was the fan Of Vestai
Ours Is the campfire bright,
Ever, DER field or mountain
Streaming. It's radiance bright,
Burns through the echoing ages
with ever.brighrning rays,
Up 10 the silent heavens,
And over the crowded ways.
Welcome! o, banded brothers,
Who fought by land and sea-
Long may your days be honored,
Bright may your future he!
Long may the swords you welded
Hang on the hre'llt wall;
Long may you wait to hearken
The stirring trumpets CALL
Some may be bound together,
Girded by ropes of sandi
But ours Is grandeT compact,
Welded by sea and land
Ours is a bond unbroken,
Soldered by blood and STEEL
Shed for the rights Of freemen,
Barred for the common wcall
AS came the Great Twin Brethren
Ever so long ago,
So come the sister cities
Sharing our camp'flre's glow,
Hard by the three great cities
Whose honOred sons are we,
Three shining rivers hasten
To meet the shining sea,
And still, as their waters mlngle,
Far in the sounding deep,
Bitter and sweet together,
Old memories round US creep
Cfdays wlen stern and silent
While the pillows beat below,
We watched mid the flame aud thunder
The battles ebb and flow.
But now, when the blades OF battle
Are beut 10 links ofsteel,
Linking our hearts together,
One for common veal
While the golden west Is fading,
And the shades of evening fall,
While the silken banners rustic
High on the LOFTY wall
We sit by the glowing campfire
one thought, one heart, one hand
To tell Of the times we watched 1t
For God and Fatherlandl
SO shall the gray. haired grandslre
Tell by his iireside bright
How lie heard the words of welcome,
And sat with us tonight
Long long may the words Of welcome
GLADDEN. us, comrades, yet,
Till your last bright star has risen,
And your last sad sun has seti
Till the last gray Comrade waiting
