Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Poets of the West: A Selection of Favourite American Poems, With Memoirs of Their Authors
Hail, Columbia! Happy land! Hail, ye heroes, heaven-born band Who fought and bled in Freedom's cause, Who fought and bled in Freedom's cause, And when the storm of war was gone, Enjoyed the peace your valour won Let independence be our boast, Ever mindful what it cost; Ever grateful for the prize, Let its altar reach the skies. Firm - united - let us be, Rallying round our liberty; As a band of brothers joined, Peace and safety we shall find.
