HENRY GEORGE
(Died October 29, 1897)
Oh, be his death a clarion
To hearten, not dismay!
Fight on!
We have not lost the day. ...
To hearten, not dismay!
Fight on!
We have not lost the day. ...

Ay, if the day be lost, what then?
The cause, the cause endures.
Be men—
The triumph yet is yours,
The cause, the cause endures.
Be men—
The triumph yet is yours,
The triumph every cause has won
That called men to be free!
Fight on,
Indomitable as he—
That called men to be free!
Fight on,
Indomitable as he—
As he, our captain without stain,
The Bayard of the poor.
Be men!
Flinch no man in this hour.
The Bayard of the poor.
Be men!
Flinch no man in this hour.
Remember him that knew no fear,
And craved no diadem.
A cheer!
Be that his requiem.
And craved no diadem.
A cheer!
Be that his requiem.
