Four score and seven years ago
our father's brought for on this continent
a new nation,
conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition
that all men are created equal.
Now, we are angaged 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 dedicatie 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.
But, in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate,
we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground.
The brave men, living and dead,
who struggled here have consecrated it far above our poor power
to add or detract.
