brought forth, upon this continent, a new nation,
conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the
proposition that all men are created equal.

here on a great battlefield of that war. We have
come to dedicate a portion of it, 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.
