"The with rapture behold, Overshadow our realm with his plumage of gold! The flood-gates of glory are open on high, And Warren and Mercer descend from the sky! They come from above With a message of love, To bid us be firm and decided; "For you conquer, unless you're divided. Unite, and the foes to your freedom defy, Till the continent sinks, and the ocean is dry!""
