meritorious product IN, and will be
assured of a packed house on return

love the south dared for her
To fight from Lookout to the sea,
With her proud banner over me;
But from my lips thanksgiving broke,

Throughout the sweet and senSuous south
Was, with its chains and human yoke,
own hellward from the cannon's mouth
While Freedom cneered behind the smoke. >
