A TOAST TO THE FLAG.

Here's to the Red of it,
There's not thread of it,
No, nor a shred of it
In all the spread of it
Froom foot to head,
But heroes bled for it,
Faced steel and lead for it,
Precious blood shed for it,
Bathing it Red.
Here's to the White of it,
Thrilled by the sight of it,
Who knows the right of it
But feels the might of it
Through day and night
Womanhood's care for il
Made manhood dare for it,
Purity's prayer for it
Keeps it so White.
Here's to the Blue of it
Beauteous view of it,
Heavenly hue of it,
ar-spangled dew Of it,
Constant and true.
States stand supreme for it,
Diadems CLEAN for it,
Liberty's beam for il
Brightens the Blue.
Here's to the Whole of it.
STAYS. stripes and pole of it,
Body and soul of it;
On TO the goal of it,
Carry it through.
Home or abroad for it.
Unsheath the sword for it,
Fight in accord for it.
