Our common Father and Deliverer, to whose prudence, wisdom and
valour we owe our Peace, Liberty and Safety, now leads and
directs in the great councils of the nation . . . and now we
celebrate an independent Government--an original Constitution!
an independent Legislature, at the head of which we this day
celebrate, The Father of his Country--We celebrate Washington!
We celebrate an independent Empire!

Where may the wearied eye repose,
When gazing on the Great;
Where neither guilty glory glows,

Whom envy dared not hate,
Bequeathed the name of Washington
To make man blush; there was but one.
