ON THE VISIT OF GENERAL LAFAYETTE


TO AMERICA.
See Freedoms champion, full of years,
fhc pride of the Free-man's story,
AGAIN across the Atlantic steers


10 the land of his former glory!
ihe Old Worlds night he leaves behind,
The morn Of the New is before him
ana the ocean is calm, and the winds arc kind,
And the heavens shine mildly DER him.
And sec! on the shores of Freedoms land
A Nation is fondiy straying,
And asking each billow that breaks on its strand
Why their So Guest SO longis delaying
lie comes!-he lands-and thousand arms
Are stretched at once to cnfold him;
ana Liberty clasps him in all her charms,
rejoicing again to behold him.
S4blime from her throne in the World of the


West


,..SShe she extends him the sceptre he gave her,
"@ie the millions around her cry ''Hail!" to
-, their "Guest,'


me Hero who conquered to save her.
On! who would not envy the godlike pride
a., hhs triumph his soul is feeling
"h'e the Sons Of those Sires who fought by


his side


aeE gratitude thus are revealing.
