4 quotes

'Twas the blood of the Saxon within them that ran;
They held—to be free is the birthright of man.

The singing of birds,
A warbling band,
And flowers, are words
Which even a babe may understand.

'Tis the night—the night
Of the grave's delight,
And the warlocks are at their play!
Ye think that without,
The wild winds shout,
But no, it is they—it is they!

And so we shake
The snowy flake
From cedar and myrtle fair;
And the boughs that nod
On the hills of God,
We raise to his glory there.
