THE HOUR OF FREEDOM.[3]

BY WILLIAM LLOYD GARRISON.

The hour of freedom! come it must. O hasten it, in mercy, Heaven! When all who grovel in the dust Shall stand erect, their fetters riven; When glorious freedom shall be won By every caste, complexion, clime; When tyranny shall be o'erthrown, And color cease to be a crime.
