Hiram Mann's "No man survives when freedom fails"

Its been a while since I had time to blog, but this seemed worthwhile. I ran across a short poem by Hiram Mann that goes something like this:

No man survives when freedom fails;
the best men rot in filthy jails.
And those who cry 'Appease, appease!'
are hanged by those they tried to please.

I say "something like" because there appear multiple variations online. If you can point to an authoritative source, please drop me a note.
