Lord of the lyre! of languaged lightning lord!

Master of matchless melting melody!

Philosopher of Freedom! foe of falsity!

Smiter of sin with song’s swift sleepless sword!—

Lo, tyrants tremble as they turn toward

Thee, pearled and panoplied in poesy,

Winged for the warfield, waiting wistfully

Thy ripe Republic of all rights restored.
