— From History of the United States (1888), vol. iv., pp. 442-444. 5. MARYLAND! MY MARYLAND! By James R. Randall. The despot's heel is on thy shore, Maryland ! His torch is at thy temple door, Maryland ! Avenge the patriotic gore That flecked the streets of Baltimore, And be the battle-queen of yore, Maryland ! My Maryland ! Hark to an exiled son's appeal, Maryland ! My mother- State, to thee I kneel, Maryland ! For live and death, for woe and weal, Thy peerless chivalry reveal. And gird thy be...auteous limbs with steel, Maryland ! My Maryland ! Thou wilt not cow^er in the dust, Maryland ! Thy beaming sword shall never rust, Maryland ! Remember Carroll's sacred trust ; Remember Howard's war-like thrust. And all thy slumb'rers with the just, Maryland ! My Maryland ! -15- Thoii wilt not yield the Vandal toll, Maryland ! Thou wilt not crook to his control, Maryland ! Better the fire upon the roll, Better the shot, the blade, the bowl, Than crucifixion of the soul, Maryland ! My Maryland !
