All You Need For Happiness

Let Peace, Descending From Her Native Heaven, Bid Her Olives Spring Amidst The Joyful Nations; And Plenty, In League With Commerce, Scatter Blessings From Her Copious Hand!

Thus We Behold Kentucky, Lately An Howling Wilderness, The Habitation Of Savages And Wild Beasts, Become A Fruitful Field; This Region, So Favourably Distinguished By Nature, Now Become The Habitation Of Civilization, At A Period Unparalleled In History, In The Midst Of A Raging War, And Under All The Disadvantages Of Emigration To A Country So Remote From The Inhabited Parts Of The Continent.

I Had Gained The Summit Of A Commanding Ridge, And, Looking Round With Astonishing Delight, Beheld The Ample Plains, The Beauteous Tracts Below.
