O storied vale of Merrimac!
Rejoice through oil thy shade End shine.
And from his century's sleep, call back

Tho shades Of Leo and Jefferson

And Carroll lord Of CarroltonI
Ne thine hcnceforth pride Of place
Beyond thy namesakos over SEA. ~
where scarce stone is left to trace
The Holy House Of Amesbury.
prouder memory fingers round
The birth place Of thy true man here.
Than that which haunts the refuge found
by Arthur's mythie Guenevere.
The plain. deal table. where 10 sat
Ana signed q nations title deed.
Is dcarcr now to famo than that
Which bore the scroll Of Runnymede.
Long as on Freedoms natal morn,
Shall ring the Independence bells,
Thy childrcns children yet unborn
Shall hear the tale his image tells
In that great hour Of destiny
Which tried the souls Of sturdicst stock.
Who knew the end alone must be
FREQ land a traitors block.
Amidst those picked and chosen men.
Than his, who here first drew his breath,
No lrmcr fingers held the pen
That wrote for liberty or death
Not for their hcarths and homes alone.
But for tho world the deed was done;
On all the winds their thought has flown.
Though all the circuit Of the sun.
We trace It's fight by broken chains.
By songs OF grateful labor still.
To-day. in all her holy fanes
1t rings the bells Of freed Brazil
o hills that watched his boyhood's home.
o EARTH and air that nursea him. give.
In this memorial semblance.
TO him who shall its bronze outlive!
And thou Land he loved. rejoice
That in the countless years to come.
Whenever freedom needs voice
These sculptured lips shall not be dumb
