The History of the First United States Flag / and the Patriotism of Betsy Ross, the Immortal Heroine That Originated the First Flag of the Union

by J. Franklin Reigart

To conquest we will go.

And when the war is over, boys,

Then down we’ll sit at ease,

Protected by the freemen’s flag,

And live just as we please.

When from conquest we shall go! shall go! shall go!

With the red, white, and blue,

From conquest we shall go.

Each hearty lad shall take his lass,

All beaming like a star,
