ON THE ABOLITION OF SLAVERY IN THE UNITED STATES.
From the fair realms of Britain a stranger I came
To the land which exults in great Washington's name,
To the land disenthralled by free patriot hearts,
To the land to which freedom such glory imparts,
To the land which exults in great Washington's name,
To the land disenthralled by free patriot hearts,
To the land to which freedom such glory imparts,
To the land where the rights of all men are respected,
Where its rulers and statesmen are freely elected,
Where no proud aristocracy ever can sway,
And no people on earth are unshackled as they!
Where its rulers and statesmen are freely elected,
Where no proud aristocracy ever can sway,
And no people on earth are unshackled as they!
