THE FLAG SPEAKS
BY THEoDosiA GARRISON
of the NlQilantes.

Great minds planned me.
High hearts made me,
Strong arms raised me
To fly while life endures:
Fine souls wrought for me,
Brave men fought for me,
Bound and broken sought for me-
Now-I am yours.
The wide world sees me,
The wild seas know me,
The four winds lift me
A signal and a flame:
Your youth and your age,
Your hope and heritage.
Your fathers fathers page
That bears your name.
Your hands uphold me.
Your strength sustains me,
Your service honors me
with every task It gives.
Hold me your word and worth,
Hold me your sword and hearth.
Hold me your sign to earth
That Freedom lives
