O'CONNELL.
(by speranza.) O great World-Loader of a mighty age, Praise unto thee let all the people give ; By thy great name of Liberator live In golden letters upon history's page. And this thy epitaph while Time shall be : He found his country chained, but left her free, So let the nations come, And round O' Cornell's tomb, Pilgrims of Freedom from the farthest sea, Give to his glorious name Honor and deathless lame, And ■with a reverence no years can dim, Here in the heaven's light, Here, where two world's unite Chant thy immortal hymn, O Liberty !
