Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Reform and Nature Verse
Liberty hath never owned a truer son Than he, our own plain craftsman of the soil, Reared in an age inured to earnest toil, In whom democracy stands awed, - outdo ne, Supreme he stood till Freedom's fight was won; Serene amid the thunder of turmoil, He broke the throbbing bands of human spoil; 'twas he who held that no man 'neath God's sun Is good enough to govern other men, Without their own consent, nor yet to stride Upon their bending backs for right or wrong For he assumed and e'er maintained again That who have liberty to men denied 'neath Freedom's God shall not retain it long!
