THICK-SPRINKLED BUNTING.

THICK-SPRINKLED bunting! flag of stars! Long yet your road, fateful flag—long yet your road, and lined  
 with bloody death,
  [ begin page 368 ]ppp.00707.376.jpg For the prize I see at issue at last is the world, All its ships and shores I see interwoven with your threads greedy  
 banner;
Dream'd again the flags of kings, highest borne, to flaunt unrival'd? O hasten flag of man—O with sure and steady step, passing  
 highest flags of kings,
Walk supreme to the heavens mighty symbol—run up above  
 them all,
Flag of stars! thick-sprinkled bunting!
