Americas Holy War.

(Ohio state Journal)
Let not Thy people fight for vengeance,
Lord,
Though treacherous the blow
Dealt by the secret foe;
Be ours a nobler aim
Theirs the undying shame.
O, God of battles, Thou didst say:
Vengeance is mine; l will repay"
Far other be the cause our blood TO shed.
A burdened people freed
Slaves to the Spaniards greed
There shall, by Freedoms hand,
The nation, Cuba, stand
Eternal monument, O Spain!
To thy fell work-to our brave Maine.
