Patriotic and Heroic Eloquence

Excerpt from Patriotic and Heroic Eloquence: A Book for the Patriot, Statesman, and Student IT shall not sever! N o! As soon The sister-stars by tempest-wreck Shall be divided in their sky, And darkle into chaos back. Flag of the valiant and the tried, Where Marion fought and Warren died! Flag of the mountain and the lake! Of rivers rolling to the sea In that broad grandeur fit to make The symbols of eternity! O fairest żag! 0 dearest land! Who shall your banded children sever? God of our fathers! Here we stand, A true, a free, a fearless band, Heart pressed to heart, hand linked in hand, And swear that żag shall żoat forever!
