"THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER"
Fnancis Scott. Key
Oh.'. Aay, can you acc by the dawn’A canty tight, What Ao pfioudty cue hailed at the twilight's Last gleaming,
Whose bn.oad stnlpes and bflight stans through the penlloas fiight,
O'enthe nampants we watched wefie so gallantly SIncoming?
And the fiocket's fied glafie, and bombs bufiAting in aifi,
Gave pftoo£ through the night that oufi filag was still thefiel
Oh, say, does the A tan-spang led bannedt yet wave O' en the land o^ the fifiee and the home ofi the bnave?
