Tho "enclent wrong that is manfully owned,
In the message that sped on the BLUM March
"a a wrong the confessing has far atoned,
And becomes. indeed. rs a WORKOUT 'spe'
Tho hail OF people brave and sincere.
It comes like the, clasp OF friendly hand
For frank OF this Western lana
To claim OF kinship we also are leal;
our pulses feel the common blood
Two ma tons these but OF common veal
They speak their vows In the selt-same tongue.
Pronounce their faith through common creed;
"P ia. "f e soul 8o Of the e@ Knss ye, in the breed
a common GOSPEL we ps cs.l tho tho. world
We sons Of the Ango,saxon rae ,,,
Wherever the Stars and stripes arc unfurled.
Where the shamrock and thistle and rose find
place
IT'S the freedom and manhood Of man we preach
Direct is our purpose and clear our speech.
And our guns thunder, and terribly strike.
Then here's cheer for your cheer to a kinsman
land:
The reign OF the tyrant shall cease TO be-
since Saxon and Saxon clasp friendly hand.
And ones TO the Westand. as one TO the sea!
