noble daring, Shall make the tyrant cower; Oppression flees before him, With all its boasted power. Soon shall the voice of freedom, O'er earth its echoes roll-- And earth's rejoicing millions Be free, from pole to pole. Then rally round your leader, Ye friends of liberty; And let the shout for Birney, Ring out o'er land and sea. [Footnote 3: Clay's body servant.] COME, JOIN THE ABOLITIONISTS.
