Long live the memory of this first state of the Union. May we show to the world, "In Union there is Strength."
Virginia
Home of the father of Our Country, to thee we dedicate this tree. Washington, give us that courage that held thee to the great cause of freedom.
North Carolina
The cypress tall and majestic is the tree of this state. Majestic may this country of ours stand among the nations of the world.
South Carolina
Like the palmetto which bends its branches over all who come to its shade, spread to all the benediction of life and liberty.
Georgia
Refuge of the oppressed. May the charity of thy founders characterize us as a nation.
Song, "America."
