Présentation de l'éditeur

I ts founders lie unnamed in the azure shadows of the Rockies, And even those who broke the bond of hire Ung rule In our own Southland lie in unknown graves. And how they strove! for power nor glory crown, But just that you become a mightier race to build a mightier world. Since now tis you go forth to take your place A mong the builders of a future state, Behold examples of those men of old And hear inaudible pleas of that vast congregated might Of master workers, who though dead will never die. You are the heir of nations. And ours the mightiest nation of them all, which, With the strength of forest oak, grew like a mushroom in the night, With all the virtues of the older world. Then take your tool, if brush or pen or scroll, And use it so that if your name forgotten be Your work will stand to uplift man Through all eternity.
