- 0:11Speaker 1: our fathers brought forth upon this continent a new nation,
- 0:15Speaker 1: conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all
- 0:19Speaker 1: men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a
- 0:23Speaker 1: great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation,
- 0:27Speaker 1: so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are
- 0:31Speaker 1: met on a great battle field of that war. We
- 0:35Speaker 1: have come to dedicate a portion of that field as
- 0:37Speaker 1: a final resting place for those who here gave their
- 0:40Speaker 1: lives that this nation might live. It is altogether fitting
- 0:45Speaker 1: and proper that we should do this. But in a
- 0:48Speaker 1: larger sense we cannot dedicate, We cannot consecrate, We cannot
- 0:53Speaker 1: hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who
- 0:57Speaker 1: struggled here have consecrated it far above our poor power
- 1:02Speaker 1: to add or detract. The world will little note nor
- 1:05Speaker 1: long remember what we say here, but it can never
- 1:09Speaker 1: forget what they did here. It is for us, the living,
- 1:13Speaker 1: rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which
- 1:17Speaker 1: they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced.
- 1:21Speaker 1: It is rather for us to be here dedicated to
- 1:24Speaker 1: the great task remaining before us, that from these honored
- 1:27Speaker 1: dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which
- 1:31Speaker 1: they gave the last full measure of devotion. That we
- 1:35Speaker 1: here highly resolved that these dead shall not have died
- 1:38Speaker 1: in vain, that this nation under God shall have a
- 1:42Speaker 1: new birth of freedom, and that government of the people,

- 27:10Speaker 12: do this. But in a larger sense we cannot dedicate,
- 27:15Speaker 12: We cannot consecrate, we cannot howl this ground. The brave men,
- 27:21Speaker 12: living and dead, who struggled here have consecrated it power
- 27:26Speaker 12: above our poor power to add or detract the world.
- 27:31Speaker 12: Will it not no long remember what we say here,
- 27:36Speaker 12: But it can never forget what they did here. It
- 27:40Speaker 12: is for us the living, rather to be dedicated here
- 27:43Speaker 12: to the unfinished work which they who fought here have
- 27:47Speaker 12: thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us
- 27:52Speaker 12: to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us,
- 27:58Speaker 12: that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to
- 28:03Speaker 12: that cause for which they gave the last full measure
- 28:06Speaker 12: of devotion. That we here highly resolved that these dead
- 28:12Speaker 12: shall not have died in pain, that this nation under
- 28:16Speaker 12: God shall have a new birth of freedom, and that
- 28:20Speaker 12: government of the people, by the people, for the people
- 28:26Speaker 12: shall not perish from this earth. End of the Gettysburg Address.

- 28:41Speaker 13: The Gettysburg Address by Abraham Lincoln, read for LibriVox by
- 28:46Speaker 13: Sue Anderson four score and seven years ago. Our fathers
- 28:53Speaker 13: brought forth upon this continent a new nation, conceived in
- 28:58Speaker 13: liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are
- 29:03Speaker 13: created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war,
- 29:09Speaker 13: testing whether that nation, or any nation, so conceived and
- 29:14Speaker 13: so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a
- 29:19Speaker 13: great battle field of that war. We have come to
- 29:22Speaker 13: dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting
- 29:27Speaker 13: place for those who here gave their lives that this
- 29:31Speaker 13: nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that
- 29:36Speaker 13: we should do this. But in a larger sense, we
- 29:41Speaker 13: cannot dedicate, We cannot consecrate, We cannot hallow this ground.
- 29:48Speaker 13: The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here have
- 29:52Speaker 13: consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract.
