Gettysburg Address
Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth, on this connent, a new
naon, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposion that all men are created
equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, tesng whether that naon, or any naon so
conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great bale-eld of
that war. We have come to dedicate a poron of that eld, as a nal resng place for
those who here gave their lives that that naon might live. It is altogether ng and
proper that we should do this.
But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate – we can not consecrate – we can not
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 lile 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 unnished 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
devoon to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devoon – that we
here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain – that this naon, 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.
19 N ovember, 1863 Abraham Lincoln
