18                   THE STARRY FLAG.
Onward ! till the flag is flying O'er the cities of the South! In the breath of Freedom breaking From the cannon's iron mouth — From the cannon,

Air — " Dixie's Land."
OH, the Starry Flag is the flag for me ! 'T is the flag of life ! the flag of the free !
Then hurrah, hurrah !
For the Flag of the Union ! Oh, the Starry Flag, &c. We '11 raise that starry banner, boys,
Hurrah! hurrah ! We '11 raise that starry banner, boys, Where no power in wrath can face it!
On town and field.
The people's shield,
