JFRoN THE sERMAN.l
At dead Of night the drummer l.s
From out his grave awakes,
And with his drum parading,
His wonted round he takes.
His arms all bare and heshless,
IN eddyIng circles flow,
And beat the roll with vIgor,
The 'larum and tattoo.
o strange and loud resounded
That drum amidst the gloom;
The warriors that slumbered
Awaken IN the tomb:
And they who sleep congealing
Mid northern Ice and snow,
And they who lie in Ita.y
Where screening summers glow;
And they whom the Nile slime covers,
And Araby's glowing sand,
From out their graves arising,
AL take their arms IN hand.
The trumpeter. at midnight,
Quits TOO his grave to blow
his blast, so shrlll and piercing,
And rldeth to and fro.
There, coming on spectral chargers,
ne CHASTITY dead behold!
Inc blood st Ilned ancient squadfons,
Win weapons manifold.
The grInning skulls so CHASTITY
Beneath their helmets peer;
In their bony hands uplIfted
Their cleaning swords appear.
At midnight's ghostly kour
Ghe chlefIaln CUTS his grave,
Advances, slowly riding
Amid his chosen brave.
No plume his helm adorneth,
His gaTb no regal pride,
And small IS the polished sabre
That's glrded to his sIde.
The moon shines bright, illuming
The PLAIN with sIlverrays;
That cGIef with the plumeit IS holmst
His warrior host surveys.
Their ranks, their arms presenting,
They shoulder arms anew,
And pass with music's clangor
Before hun in review.
The General and MarshaIs
Ronnd N n circle stand :
The ohieftain whispers softly
To one at his right hand.
From raDk to rank resoundlng,
Do heeth o er the PLAIN:

Thus in the midnight hour,
In the lily slau PLAIN,
The dead and mi : hty oonQueror
