  1. (continued from previous page)
    And soon (God speed the glorious day) this cherished mother isle of ours,
    Shall feel the thrill of Freedoms dawn, and strength of priceless native powers
    And all her charms blighted long by fiendish greed and cruel crime,
    Shall bloom again a thousand fold like flowers in golden Summer time.
