Text Appearing Before Image:
The battle-ax and barbed spear their worthIn deadly combat on the tented field ; Those fabled days so vaguely seen are gone,Though battered walls and crumbling towers may sighAnd dream of chivalry : yet comes the dawnOf centuries which myth and mould defy.Whose rays of promise, brighter than the sun,Spread far and near when brave Columbus won. (The New.)The nations marching from the mystic past.Or through the dark uncertainty and gloomOf fated epochs bearing on their doom, 154 Ignominy and Death. Behold afarâtoo far for hope to last,Or feudal thrones to bind a people fast âA world of beauty and of sweet perfume,A land of golden hues and vernal bloom.Spanned only by the arc of heaven so vast : No worm-gnawed parchments need proclaimthe rights, Where simple worth, spurred by the pulse ofyouth. Inspires a nation and restores to sight The long-lost palms of Liberty and Truth. Proud Realm of western grandeur and re-nown ! Thou seekest only good the New to crown. âW. J. Crandall, 155
