They have met at last, as storm-clouds
Meet in heaven;
And the Mortimer, back and bleeding
Have been driven;
And their thunder has been s.illed.
And their leaders crushed or killed,
And their ranks with terror thrilled,
Rent and riyen.
Like tho leaves of Valambrca
They are lying
In the midnight and the moonlight,
Dead and dying;
Like those leaves before the gale
Fled their legions-wild and pale
While the host that made them quail
Stood deiying
When in the morning sunlight
Flags were hIunted,
And vengeance on the Rebels"
Proudly Wanted,
They little dreamed that night
Would close upon their flight,
And the victors Of the fight
Stand undaunted.
But peace to those who persisted
In our passes!
Light DO the earth above them,
Green the grasses!
Long shall Mortimer rue the day,
When In battles wild ARRAY
