Her fustian flag in mockery over slaves.
Bastard Freedom waves
Her fustian flag in mockery over slaves.

In Adam's fall--
We sinned all.
Alas! how light a cause may move
Dissension between hearts that love!

Alas! how light a cause may move
Dissension between hearts that love!

Oh! still remember me.
Go where glory waits thee;
But while fame elates thee,
Oh! still remember me.
