cis de Haes Janvier. The Stars and Stripes! What hand shall dare To desecrate the flag we bear? The flag of stars, whose cheering light Brightened oppression's gloomy night! The flag of stripes, whose heavenly dyes Flashed Freedom's day-spring through the skies! Our flag! The standard of the free! Symbol of hope and liberty! The Stars and Stripes! What memories rise, Whene'er that banner greets our eyes! By patriots borne, o'er land and sea, It led the way to victory! When slaughter swept the surging main-- When carnage strewed the crimson plain-- It marked the spot where heroes stood, It was baptized in heroes' blood! The Stars and Stripes! What power shall stay Immortal Freedom's onward way! The heavens are the triumphal arch Through which she takes her mighty march! Her mighty march! Nor shall she halt Till, like the spangled azure vault, O'er every land around the world The Stars and Stripes shall be unfurled! Washington, March 19, 1861. --N. Y. Evening Post, March 22.
