The Repeal of the Missouri Compromise | ||
They think that liberty is doomed,
That she forever is entombed,
Nor will her cold and languid ear
The voice of resurrection hear.
That she forever is entombed,
Nor will her cold and languid ear
The voice of resurrection hear.
Though sacred Freedom bleeds, we said,
She is not terrified nor dead;
For truth's her everlasting prop
And bears her gentle spirit up.
She is not terrified nor dead;
For truth's her everlasting prop
And bears her gentle spirit up.
