Whoe'er has travers'd thro' our broad domain, The mountains skirted and the verdant plains, Hath read, thro' all conditions, in each eye, The conscious pride of sweetest liberty ; Hath noted oft and oft how great the least, Partaking of this democratic feast; And tho' a master, yet, hath felt as man, Since those who rule are servants in the land! I THE CANNON A DE . 133 Cannot have failed to weep as well as smile, At freedom's tricks so thoughtless and so wild ; Still in the sum of all our nati...on's points, While much debases, yet, how much exalts !
We 've passed the ocean to its farthest shores, Where China stretches with its Pagan hordes ; Where Luconia 'midst th' translucent wave, A vegetation rich with pride parades ; Where Mexic's copper-colored Peons play Their rials off, the earnings of each day; Where California's flat-faced Indians seem, The dread embodiment of some dark dream ; Yet we 've n'er witnessed in our varied rounds, The solid substance of a Yankee's bounds, As in his home he sits with wife and child, Secure beneath the stars and stripes the while : 12 134 THE CANNONADE.
