Mary Elizabeth Kail, Emancipation Day (1883)
“ Men whose throbbing souls ignited At the watch-fires freedom lighted. Freedom’s altar fires, still burning Flash and sparkle at each turning, As the car of progress moving, Rolls them on to nobler fame. This work was published before January 1, 1928, and is in the public domain worldwide because the author died at least 100 years ago. ”
