"Hang out that glorious old Red Cross; Hang out the Stripes and Stars; They faced each other fearlessly In two historic wars: But now the ocean-circlet binds The Bridegroom and the Bride; Old England, young America, Display them side by side. "High up, from Trinity's tall spire, We'll fling the banners out; Hear how the world-wide welkin rings, With that exulting shout! Forever wave those wedded flags, As proudly now they wave, God for the lands His love has blessed; The beauteous and the brave. "But see, the dallying wind the Stars About the Cross has blown; And see, again, the Cross around The Stars its folds has thrown: Was ever sign so beautiful Flung from the heavens abroad? Old England, young America, For Freedom and for God." At one o'clock the procession formed at the Battery and marched from there to the Crystal Palace, then standing at Forty-second Street between Fifth and Sixth avenues.
