Emblems of American Liberty

By J. Rodman Drake

“When Freedom from her mountain height Unfurled her standard to the air, She tore the azure robe of night And set the stars of glory there. She mingled with its gorgeous dyes The milky baldric of the skies, And striped its pure celestial white With streakings of the morning light. Then, from his mansion near the sun, She called her eagle bearer down, And gave into his mighty hand The symbol of her chosen band.” —J. Rodman Drake.
