About This Item

HOWE, Julia Ward. Battle Hymn of the Republic. Printed in black on cream paper. 8" x 5" inches. Double-sided leaflet. Two poems by Julia Ward Howe printed on recto and verso, "Battle Hymn of the Republic" and "Suffrage Song." "Battle Hymn..." a Union anthem in the Civil War, is rife with religious imagery and concludes with: "In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across the sea, With a glory in his bosom that transfigures you and me: As he died to make men holy, let us die to make men free, While God is marching on." "Suffrage Song" printed on verso, meant to be sung to the tune of "America": My country 'tis for thee, / To make your women free, / This is our plea. / High have our hopes been raised / In these enlightened days/ That for her justice, praised / Our land might be." Two landmark poems from the suffragist and poet Julia Ward Howe that became anthems of their respective movements. In near fine condition.
