They who maintained their rights, Through storm and stress, And walked in all the ways That God made known, Led by no wandering lights, And by no guess, Through dark and desolate days Of trial and moan: Here let their monument Rise, like a word In rock commemorative Of our Land's youth;
Of ways the Puritan went, With soul love-spurred To suffer, die, and live For faith and truth.
