THE TEST

Money you have, though children none,
Who say that you would give your son
To help dear Liberty to live,
If you had a son to give.
Remember, words are not the price
At which the wares of God are sold.
Your own flesh would you sacrifice
Who will not even lend your gold?

Amelia Josephine Burr.
