“The despot’s heel is on thy shore,
Maryland!
His torch is at thy temple door,
Maryland!
Avenge the patriotic gore
That flecked the streets of Baltimore,
And be the battle-queen of yore,
Maryland! my Maryland!”

“And every stone shall cry,
In praises of the child
By whose descent among us
The worlds are reconciled.”
