ITALY.
Now in your hour oi tiial and bitter shame . . While the big - hosts victorious, onward rolled. Flood your riclr plains and cities fair and old, Remember him, your hero of great fame, The will of iron and the heart of i flame, , . . Who won back from this loe the land you hold ; ' s'ing as you sang then, tell the tales 1 ° votl told, : And treason cannot toul vour j holy name. 1 Italy, brilliant, beautiful and brave ! Matrix of Empire, storied Italy, Where arts had birth and yet again j re-birtli, | Already you are saved if prayers can save, ' . p or you the prayers of hall j humanity, j Rise heavenward from the poor i ensanguined earth.
