RALPH WALDO EMERSON
[Sidenote: April 19, 1775]
_This poem was written to be sung at the completion of the
Concord Monument, April 19, 1836_
By the rude bridge that arched the flood,
Their flag to April's breeze unfurled,
Here once the
embattled
farmers stood,
And fired the shot heard round the world.

H. D. - Sea Garden |

Straight from the town be sheep and oxen sought,
And strengthening bread and generous wine be brought
Wide o'er the field, high blazing to the sky,
Let numerous fires the absent sun supply,
The flaming piles with
plenteous

Till the bright morn her purple beam displays;
Lest, in the silence and the shades of night,
Greece on her sable ships attempt her flight.
