The echoes cheered us on. The fight was won ! And now we come to hail thee — FIRST HERALD Every sail astrain across the foam — SECOND HERALD And every trumpet singing — ^Victory! [As they speak, Victory appears on the eleva- tion at the left. She is the color of flame, and her draperies blow backward as she stands like one on the prow of a ship, holding aloft her wreath of golden bay; behind her is a group of maidens with long trumpets of silver.] THE COMMUNITY GROUP Victory, Victory, Victory! ...A IM E R I c A Hail, Victory. Let the music soar, and beat The ground with your rejoicing feet. But I — I wait. . . . [From behind America comes a group of danc- ers, who fill the central space with a triumphant bacchanal. At the end of the dance, drums are heard from the left, and America speaks.] Now the East grows quick. Break off — ye that make glad with Victory. I hear the bugles, feel the throb, the march Of my returning sons. I wait no more. But now, in truth and in God's light, rejoice!
