TO THE WOMEN PIONEERS OF AMERICA
They cut a path through tangled underwood Of old traditions, out to broader ways. They lived to here their work called brave and good, But oh! the thorns before the crown of bays. The world gives lashes to its Pioneers Until the goal is reached—then deafening cheers.
