Quotes from Thomas Dunn English

When greater perils men inviron, Then women show a front of iron; And, gentle in their manner, they Do bold things in a quiet way.

But the freedom that they fought for, and the country grand they wrought for, Is their monument to-day, and for aye.

Oh! don't you remember sweet Alice, Ben Bolt?Sweet Alice, whose hair was so brown.

But the freedom that they fought for, and the country grand they wrought for, Is their monument to-day, and for aye.
