Birds and All Nature, Vol 7, No. 2, February 1900 Illustrated by Color Photography
Part 6
The first in war, the first in peace, The first in hearts that freemen own; Unparalleled till time shall cease-- He lives, immortal and alone.
Yet let the rock-hewn tower rise, High to the pathway of the sun, And speak to the approving skies Our gratitude to Washington.
