On lone barren isle where the wild waving
billow,
Assails the stern rock and the loud tempests
rave,
The hero lies still, while the dew dropping
willow,
Like fond weeping mourncrs, leaned over the
grave.
The lightning may fash, and the loud thunders
rattle,
Ee heeds not, he hears not, he's free from ali
pain:
He sleeps his last sleep, he has fought his last
battle,
No sound can awake him to glory again.
On shade of the mighty, where now are the le-
That rushed but to conquer when thou led d'st

Alas: they have perished in far distant re-

And ali save the fame of their triumph is gone.
The trumpet may sound and the loud cannon
They heed not they hear not, they're free from
all pain,
They seep their last sleep, they have fought
their last battle,
No sound can awake them to glory again.
Yet spirit immortal, the tomb cannot bind
thee,
For ike thine own eagle that SCARED to the
sun,
Thou springest from bondage, and leavest be-

Though nations may combat, and wars thunder

No more on the steed wilt thou sweep DER the
