[401]
     These words shall be our cry,—
Fremont and Victory!

Sound now the trumpet cheerily!
     Nor dream of Heaven's forsaking
The issue of its making,
     That Right with Wrong must try.
The cloud that hung so drearily
     The Northern winds are breaking;
The Northern Lights are shaking
     Their fire-flags in the sky.
Sound the signal of awaking;
     Sound the onset wild and high!
Country and Liberty!
     Freedom and Victory!
These words shall be our cry,—
     Fremont and Victory!
