COLUMBIA. 23 |

And from the sky there seemed to float A voice like angel's warning note —
Secession!
—♦—
COLUMBIA, QUEEN" OF THE LAND AND THE SEA.
BY GEORGE W. ELLIOTT.
AMERICA ! Home of the free ! To the stars of thy liberties bright Turn the eyes of the millions who flee For the rescue from tyranny's night! Though thy magical name and thy ensign unfurled May enkindle some envy with joy in the world, Yet the orbs of thy Union shall glow through all
time, While the nations of earth own their splendor sublime.
Chorus :
O, Columbia's banner, the flag of the free,
Shall be honored for aye, o'er the land and the sea!
Columbia *a Queen of the land 1
For the heart of the nation, her throne, |
