Haul Down that Flag.

Haul down that flag! Twas meant
The banner of the brave and free
The standard OF immortal sires
Who kindled Freedoms altar fires,
Bequeathed from patriot ,lre to son
To guard what Lit -.ty had won.
That flag We never meant to wave
Above d subject or slave.
Haul down the flag our sires unfurled!
1t meant redemption for the world;
1t meant that every land should see
A light that led to Liberty
1t meant that empire and the sway
Of fire and sword should pass away;
But now it's but lying rag,
The empire needs another flag.
That fig was meant for men who fight
z For Home and Liberty and Right,
And not to lead conqu'ring band
'Gainst those who guard their native
land.
Who fight the fight our fathers fought,
And seek the rights our fathers
- sought;
But since we choose the path OF Spain,
Our fathers work was all in vain.
If we must fight to loot the world,
Then let the Patriot Flag be furled,
And let Our fleets and armies bold
Uprear the Flag Of Blood and Gold.
A Caesars crown, and buff and red,
For gold we seek and blood we shed.
If we must tread the path of Rome,
Haul down that flag and send it home;
But let no pirate work be done
Beneath the flag OF Washington!
For patriot mem'ries cluster still
Around the flag OF Bunker Hill,
Which Morgan bore into Quebec,
Which foated Ger Chapultepec,
Which waved DER Camden's struggling
line,
Ger Monmouth, Guilford, Brandy
wine,
And DER the computing patriots work
At Saratoga and at York.
The flag which Hull flung to the breeze
And Paul bore through the narrow
seas,
The flag that fearless Biddle bore,
4 The flag that guarded Baltimore,
That drove the pirate armies back
At Orleans and the Saranac,
And waved DER England's squadrons
twain
On Erie and on Lake Champaign;
But Patriot fame alone shines there,
No spoilers name part may bear.
Haul down that flag! It's day is DER,
When Freedoms arms it leads no
more.
Raise Caesars eagles in its stead,
And furl it with the Patriot dead!
Since we must tread the path of Rome,
Yes, haul it down, and send it home;
Let>tl1e dead Emblem of the Free
Sleep in the grave of Liberty!

persuaded to take a drink He finally
lest his senses to a great extent. and
10 was while in this condition that the
