Gettysburg Address

by Abraham Lincoln

Four score and seven years ago
our fathers brought forth on this continent
a new nation,
conceived in liberty and dedicated
to the proposition that all men are created equal.

Now we are engaged in a great civil war,
testing whether that nation
or any nation so conceived and so dedicated
can long endure.

We are met on a great battlefield of that war.

We have come
to dedicate a portion of that field
as a final resting-place
for those who here gave their lives
that that nation might live.

It is altogether fitting and proper
that we should do this.

But in a larger sense,
we cannot dedicate,
we cannot consecrate,
we cannot hallow this ground.

The brave men,
living and dead who struggled here
have consecrated it far above our poor power
to add or detract.

The world will little note nor long remember
what we say here,
but it can never forget
what they did here.

It is
for us the living rather
to be dedicated here
to the unfinished work
which they who fought here
have thus far so nobly advanced.

It is rather
for us
to be here dedicated
to the great task remaining before us --
that from these honored dead 
we take increased devotion
to that cause
for which they gave the last full measure of devotion--
that we here highly resolve 
that these dead shall not have died in vain,
that this nation under God shall have a new birth of freedom,
and that government of the people,
by the people,
for the people
shall not perish from the earth.
