The constitution of the general society of the Sons of the revolution, and the constitution and by-laws of the society of the Sons of the revolution in the state of New York, with the membership roll of the New York society, March 10, 1891 . ber the manWhose valor gave birth to a peoples salvation,—Honor him now ; set his name in the nobleness to try for,A name to live and die for—The name of AVashiugton ! Calmly his face shall look down through the ages— Sweet yet severe with a spirit of warning ;Charged with the wisdom of saints and of sages ;Quick with the light of a life-giving majesty to try for,A name to live and die for—The name of Washington ! Though faction may rack us, or party divide us. And bitterness break the gold links of our story,Our father and leader is ever beside and forgive ! But forget not the gloryOf him whose height we try for;A name to live and die for—The name of Washington ! Still in his eyes shall be mirrored our fleetingDays, with the image of days long ended ;Still shall those eyes give, immortally, greetingUnto the souls from his spirit grandeur we will try for ;His name well live and die for—The name of Washington !
