And woman, kind woman, wife, widow, and maid, For the good of the hunted, is lending her aid: Her foot's in the stirrup, her hand on the rein, How blithely she rides to the hunting of men!

Freedom, hand in hand with labor, Walketh strong and brave; On the forehead of his neighbor No man writeth Slave! Lo, the day breaks! old Katahdin's Pine-trees show its fires, While from these dim forest gardens Rise their blackened spires. Up, my comrades! up and
