river, lake, and plain; Proud of the calm and earnest men Who claim the right and will to reign. Proud of the men who gave us birth, Who battled with the stormy wave, To sweep the red man from the earth, And build their homes upon his grave. Proud of the holy summer morn, They traced in blood upon its sod; The rights of freemen yet unborn, Proud of their language and their God. Proud, that beneath our proudest dome, And round the cottage-cradled hearth, There is a welcome and a home For every stricken race on earth. Proud that yon slowly sinking sun Saw drowning lips grow white in prayer, O'er such brief acts of duty done As honor gathers from despair. Pride--'tis our watchword, “Clear the boats!” “Holmes, Putnam, Bartlett, Pierson — here!” And while this crazy wherry floats, “Let's save our wounded!” cries Revere. Old State--some souls are rudely sped-- This record for thy Twentieth corps, Imprisoned, wounded, dying, dead, It only asks, “Has Sparta more?” --Boston Post,
