Stran 29 - In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders fields.

Stran 378 - This infernal traffic originated in the avarice of British merchants. The British GOvernment constantly checked the attempts of Virginia to put a stop to it. The present question concerns not the importing States alone, but the whole Union.
