Far o'er the stormy deep an empire lies, Beyond the storied islands of the blest, That waits to see the lingering day-star rise;The forest-tinctured Eden of the West;Whose queen, fair Freedom, twines her iron crestWith leaves from every wreath that mortals wear, But loves the sober garland ever bestThat science lends the sage's silvered hair;--Science, who makes life's heritage more fair, Forging for every lock its mastering key, Filling with life and hope the stagnant air, Pouring the light of... Heaven o'er land and sea!From her unsceptred realm we come to thee, Bearing our slender tribute in our hands;Deem it not worthless, humble though it be, Set by the larger gifts of older landsThe smallest fibres weave the strongest bands, --In narrowest tubes the sovereign nerves are spun, --A little cord along the deep sea-sandsMakes the live thought of severed nations oneThy fame has journeyed westering with the sun, Prairies and lone sierras know thy nameAnd the long day of service nobly doneThat crowns thy darkened evening with its flame!
