Commented by Paul

“It all began that day on Concord Bridge,
When from the fields, and from the ridge,
They left the plow, the axe upon the tree,
And came to fight for land and liberty…
And from the Mantle, the cabin-side,
They took their rifles, hanging there with pride,
And fired the shots that echo down the years,
That even now the would be tyrant fears…
So, mark this well; Free men forever fall,
When they have lost the rifle on the wall. ”
