The Gettysburg Address
87 years ago our fathers brought forth a new nation, conceived in 7. Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men 8. 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 9. endure.It is for us, the living, rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which the brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have, thus far, so nobly 10. carried on.It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us.We here highly resolve that these dead shall not have 11. died in vain; that this nation shall have a new birth of 12. freedom; and that this government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not 13. perish from the earth.
