Additional Description: Here too, this warrior sire, with honor rests,
Who braved in freedom's cause his valient breast
Sprang from his half-drawn furrow, as the cry
Of threadend liberty came thrilling by;
Look'd to his God, and reared in bulwark round
Breast free from guile, and hands with toil embrown'd,
And bade a monarch's thousand banners yield -
Firm at the plough, and glorious in the field,
Lo! here he rests, who every danger braved,
Marked and honored, 'mid the soil he saved.
