LAND OF OUR FoREFATHERS
Edward Everett's Tribute to England

For myself I can truly say that
after my native land l feel d tender

fathers. The pride l take In my own
country makes me respect that from
which we are sprung. The sound OF
my native language beyond the sea
Is music to my ears beyond the rich,
est strains Of Tuscan softness or Cas-.
lillian majesty.
am not-I need not say am not
the panegyrist' of England. l am not
dazzled by her riches nor awed by her
power. The scepter, the inter and
the coronet, stars, garters and rib
bons seem to me poor things for great
men to contend for.
But England is the cradle and the
refuge Of free principles, though often
prosecuted; the school of religious
liberty, the more precious for the
struggles through which it has passed;
she holds the tombs of those who have
reflected honor on all who speak the
English tongue; she is the birthplace
of our fathers, the home of the Pill
8rims: 1t is these which l love and
Venerate in England.
