When the great nations rose, in days OF zero.
And girded them for strife. then foated forth
Above the conquering armies Of the north
That standard which the stored legend bore
OF him who slew the dragon. Nevermore
Those hideous fangs should tear their human
prey,
Since good incarnate henceforth should hold
sway
Der evil vanquished, prone to rise no more.
Yet still, from age to age, the hydra heads
OF the slain dragon rise from out the dust.

The dallying nations sheath their blades in
