we found him as he had fallen from his
.,orse, his sword still firmly grasped in his hand,
nd the flag he had died defending drawn across
ais Lrcast. lie looked as if he had gone TO
.iccp, expecting every moment to Le aroused
~ 1 call to arms. There was not 4 clear eye
..ilong Us, when one of his friends severed
NO ringlets froLl the many that clustered on
his forehead, to send home to his mother and
bclrothcd. lie was buried as he was found
lhc flag, the sword, the soldier, in one grave
letters from the Rio Grande.
i.ct him lie in The dark, narrow grave you have
made,
Let him lie as, dying, you found him,
Lat him sleep with his hand on the diuted blade,
And the stars and stripes around him!
But first cut a lock from his long chestnut hair,
For one that the hero left weeping;
And another send home, and with,hcm tell where
The son and the lover is sleeping.
When long winter nights, at the home of his birth,
Are shortened with legend and story,
Some voice in the household will tell of his worth,
And speak of his death and his glory;
And fancy will picture the place where he sleeps,
btSluc MN me Diue winding flFcT,
The long sIoping fats where the chapparal sweeps
And summer rcatles softly forever.
The mother will weep as she thinks of her boy,
Tho ties that so tenderly bound him;
Eut the Lad at her side will think 'twere a 10Y
To sleep with a banner around him!
And she the da,k-cycd and the beautiful one,
Who waited so long FIR her lover
VIII fail asleep ~tcalfl, and dream until morn
OF the JOYS and love meetings over.
When another shall knccI at the feet of The fair,
TO win her with signs and with yowipg,
Shell tell him her heart, as he pleading knccls
there,
Is tombcd where 4 river is nowing,
Tho rlnglcts you cut from the pale marble brow
OF our comradc, warrior-heartcd.
She'll press to her lips, and remember hcr VOW
OF faith to the dear one departed.
May the magnolia leaf sweep over that mound,
The first orange blossoms bestrew it;
LAY moonbeams, like binds, on the branches sit
round,
And the iears of star eyes bedew it,
For never, oh never, the eyes of friend
Shall over that lone grave be weeping;
But across it dark chiefs their war-path will wend
Nor know Of the brave meath them sleeping.
LEAD the warehouse back TO the cool hazel hurst
Where the wild Merrimack is rowing;
when his eye grows dim he'll be tenderly hurst
by those that will never cease loving.
Lead the war-horse back! There's a horrible
stain
On the saddle seat-oh. and goryl
lis the hearts blood of one for his Country slain,
Death, death is the price Of all glory.
Let him sleep by the waves of the Rio Grande,
With no proud sculptured urn above him,
There arc tablets enough in his dear land
The soIrowing, sad hearts that love him.
Let him lie in the dark, narrow grave you have
made,
Let him lie as, dying, you found him;
Let him sleep with his hand on the dinted blade,
And the stars and stripes around him.
