 Fourscore and seven years ago our fathers brought forth uj>on this continent 
 a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men 
 are created eciual. 
 
 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. 
 
 r?ut, 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 beyond our poor iiower 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 peoi)le. by the people, for the i)COi>le. sliall not perish 
 from the earth.
