A great brain to be ever remembered
As long as history is;
A beacon that stood in an extraordinary way
When all the rest prostrate lay;
A self-made man of no blue-blood descent
Who strove to give the ***** his trampled peace;
Before it was birthed the blessed day!
A great brain to be ever remembered
As long as history is;
A beacon that stood in an extraordinary way
When all the rest prostrate lay;
A self-made man of no blue-blood descent
Who strove to give the ***** his trampled peace;
Before it was birthed the blessed day!
