Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Star Spangled Banner
The last verse ends with the lines:

And the Star-spangled banner in triumph of all wave
O'er the land of the free & the home of the brave.

----in Key's final manuscript of the text. [Facsimile in Sonneck's monograph, 1914]

[Note also on the hompage of my website that the name of the Sonneck Society has been changed.]
