Text Appearing Before Image:
the story Of renown so nobly gaind ;Still must bud the tree of glory. Though its roots with blood be staind I Build a temple to Ambition, Base it on an empires wreck ;Ye who bow in meek submission At a sceptred despots beck,Search earths bosom for the slaughtcrd, And with bones that there lie l5dOf the millions it has martyrd, Pile the ghastly pyramid!From the days when Northern Alric On the Roman eagles trodTo the era—more chivalric— Of the GaUic Demigod—Could the harvest of the sleepers From Deaths garner be restored.We should find his mightiest reapers Were the battle-axe and sword ! But the victors !—they whose madness Made the world a type of hell,Was it theirs in peace and gladness. Mid the wreck they made, to dwell ?Ask the walls where Swedens monarch Mournd Pultowas overthrow;Ask the rock of Gallias Anarch; Hark ! their echoes thunder— No!Conquests sword is only glorious When the blood with wnich it streams(Ransom of a land victorious) Natures charterd right redeems.
