And now, kind friends, as we dedicate this massiveboulder; as we gaze on this everlasting emblem, ourhearts are filled with gratitude and joy. For generations yet to come This monument shall stand,Unchanging emblem, like our hearts And wrought by Gods own hand. The following original hymn, by Comrade Samuel of Company F, was then simg by some of thecomrades of the Association to the air of the RussianNational Hymn, the band accompanying. Moved from thine ancient and stable foundation,Tempest and thunderbolt, no harm can award. Stand thou forever secure in this station,Emblem of Peace of the Merciful Lord. Tempest and thunderbolt our land assailing,After the storm comes the rainbows reward. The rage and the fury—all unavailing,Cometh the Peace of our Merciful Lord.
