Think how your Fathers left their native land And where the wild beasts roams; In patience planned New forest homes beyond the mighty sea; There, undisturbed and free To live as brothers of one family. What pains and cares befell, What trials and fears, Remember, and wherein we have done well, Follow our footsteps, men of coming years
John Greenleaf Whittier
