&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The glorious news, that Slavery now lies
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Even as a Snake, that stricken would annoy

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Earth's most malignant and oppressive foe
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Oh! task Divine! For God with His own hand
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Once led His people to their promised land
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Out of the house of bondage and of woe.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;C. Ranke.
