Strana 5 - s about to vanish From the day; And a brazen wrong to crumble Into clay. Lo! the Right's about to conquer, Clear the way ! With the Right, shall many more Enter, smiling, at the door; With the giant Wrong, shall fall Many others, great and small, That for ages long have held us For their prey. Men of thought and men of action, Clear the way ! THE GOOD TIME CO.VI.VO.
Strana 4 - Aid the dawning, tongue and pen; Aid it, hopes of honest men, Aid it, paper — aid it, type — Aid it, for the hour is ripe. And our earnest must not slacken Into play. Men of thought and men of action, Clear the way ! Lo!
Strana 7 - There's a good time coming, boys, A good time coming : War in all men's eyes shall be A monster of iniquity Nations shall not quarrel then, To prove which is the stronger, Nor slaughter men for glory's sake— Wait a little longer.

Strana 3 - Well done ! thou watcher on the lonely tower ! Is the day breaking ? dawns the happy hour ? We pine to see it : — tell us, yet again, If the broad daylight breaks upon the plain? ' ' It breaks — it comes — the misty shadows fly: — A rosy radiance gleams upon the sky; The mountain-tops reflect it calm and clear; The plain is yet in shade, but day is near.
Strana 6 - COMING. THERE'S a good time coming, boys, A good time coming : We may not live to see the day, But earth shall glisten in the ray Of the good time coming. Cannon balls may aid the truth, But thought's a weapon stronger; We'll win our battle by its aid; — Wait a little longer.
Strana 102 - Cleon harbors sloth and dullness, freshening vigor I ; He in velvet, I in fustian, richer man am I. Cleon is a slave to grandeur, free as thought am I ; Cleon fees a score of doctors, need of none have I ; Wealth-surrounded...
Strana 6 - Wait a little longer. There's a good time coming, boys, A good time coming : The pen shall supersede the sword, And Right, not Might, shall be the lord In the good time coming.
Strana 21 - Lay down your rails, ye nations near and far — Yoke your full trains to Steam's triumphal car ; Link town to town ; unite in iron bands The long-estranged and oft-embattled lands: Peace, mild-eyed seraph — Knowledge, light divine, Shall send their messengers by every line.
