Show 46 Go-let him silence Winds, clouds, and watersNever New England's own Free sons and daughters! Free as our rivers are Ocean-ward going-Free as the breezes are Over us blowing. Up to our a1tars, then, • Haste we, and summon Courage and loveliness. Manhood and woman ! Deep let our pledges beFreedom foreverTruce with Oppression, Never, oh! never! By our own birthright-gift, Granted of HeavenFreedom for heart and lip, Be the pledge given! If we have whispered truth, Whisper no longer; Speak as the tempest does, Sterner and stronger : Still be the tones of truth Louder and firmer, Startling the haughty South With the deep murmur : 47 'God and our Charter's right, Freedom forever~-- Truce with Oppression, Never, oh! never!' |
