Above all, welcome to the united regenerated Democracy of the North, which spurns the mockery of a Republic, with professions of Freedom on the lips, while the chains of Slavery clank in the Capitol!
Let loyalty to one man be exchanged for Love to Man.
Men are erring and mortal; principles are steadfast and immortal.
It applies an arrogant and unrelenting ostracism to all who express themselves against Slavery.
