Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Stories From the Winning of the West: 1769-1807 "O strange New World that yit wast never young, Whose youth from thee by gripin´ need was wrung, Brown foundlin´ o´ the woods, whose baby-bed Was prowled roun´ by the Injun´s cracklin´ tread, And who grew´st strong thru shifts an´ wants an´ pains, Nursed by stem men with empires in their brains, Who saw in vision their young Ishmel strain With each hard hand a vassal Ocean´s mane; Thou skilled by Freedom and by gret events To pitch new states ez Old World men pitch tents, Thou taught by fate to know Jehovah´s plan, Thet man´s devices can´t unmake a man. Oh, my friends, thank your God, if you have one, that he ´Twixt the Old World and you set the gulf of a sea, Be strong-backed, brown-handed, upright as your pines, By the scale of a hemisphere shape your designs."
