[“We are free, we are free]

[_]

This poem has been extracted from a passage of prose text.

“We are free, we are free;
We are waves of the sea,
And we love liberty!
Day after day, day after day
We wear the rocks away;
The rocks which wall the caves,
Where toil the wretched slaves.
Strike hard, O slaves, and be,
Like us, forever free!”
