"By the rude bridge that arched the flood,
Their flag to April's breeze unfurled,
Here once the embattled farmers stood,
And fired the shot heard round the world.."Ralph Waldo Emerson
( written for the 1837 dedication of the Obelisk, a monument in Concord,
Massachusetts commemorating the Battle of Concord, the second in a series
of battles and skirmishes on April 19, 1775 at the outbreak of the American Revolution.)
