 HUMANITY

The "intake" and the "highline,' the bedrock, and the 'nume," The heaving of the "giant" as It sprays the boys with spume, And the mighty mountains watching the tents the boys call home, If you've got an ounce of her blood in you, you will join their moan; Come and help us on the noun tain ton, and on the salt, salt sea- Come and taste the wine of doing and feel the throb of liberty" The hands that wield the shovel ane toss the boulders down,
 Are the hands that weave the heart strings into a mighty crown, A crown of human brotherhood, a
 band without an end, .r. Uncovering Gods own image In q growing race of men. Men who delve for liberty, though
 digging in the earth,
 And crown with deathless glory the
 land that gave them birth. On the ground floor with humanity
 the dearest spot on earth, I would not change for a Kingdom
 this keystone spot of worth.
