The world must be made safe for democracy.,) Its peace must be planted upon the tested foundations of political liberty.
Pagina 155 - My plans That soar, to earth may fall, Let once my army-leader Lannes Waver at yonder wall...
Pagina 403 - AY, tear her tattered ensign down ! Long has it waved on high, And many an eye has danced to see That banner in the sky; Beneath it rung the battle shout, And burst the cannon's roar; — The meteor of the ocean air Shall sweep the clouds no more. Her deck once red with heroes...
Pagina 333 - YE say, they all have passed away, That noble race and brave; That their light canoes have vanished From off the crested wave; That, 'mid the forests where they roamed, There rings no hunter's shout; But their name is on your waters, — Ye may not wash it out.
