THE MOTHERSOF THE WEST.
BY w. D.

The mothers of our forest land!
Stout hearted danes were they:
With nerves to WELD the battle band,
And join the border-fray.
Oar rough land had no Drawer,
In the days of blood and strife
Aye, ready for s~everest toll,
Aye, free to peril life.
The mothers of our forest land!
On old Kentucky's soil
How shared they, with each dauntless brand
Wars tempest and life's toll!
She shrank not from the foeman-
They quailed not in the fight
But cheer'd their husbands through the day.
And soothed them through the night.
The mothers Of our forest land!
Their bosoms pillow'd men!
And proud were they by such to stand
In hammock, fort or glen:
To load the gun, old rifle
To run the leaden ball.
To watch a battling husbands place,
And fill it, should he fall.
The mothers of our forest land!
Such were their daily deeds;
Their monument where does it stand?
Their epitaph who reads?
No drawer danes had Sparta,
No nobler matrons Rome;
Yet who e'er lauds or honors them,
Fen in their green home?
The mothers of our forest land!
They sleep in unknown graves;
And had they borne or nursed band
Ofingrates, or of slaves,
They had not been more neglected!
But their graves shall yet be found,
And their monuments dot here and there,
"The DARK and Bloody Ground!"
