Lyics

As down a lone valley with cedars o'er-spread,

From war's dread confusion I pensively stray'd,

The gloom from the face of fair heaven retired;

The winds hush'd their murmurs, the thunders expired.



Perfumes as of Eden flow'd sweetly along;

A voice as of angels enchantingly sung:

"Columbia, Columbia, to glory arise,

The queen of the world, and the child of the skies."
