How, in a hostile land,
Brave English heartH lay dropping,
'Nath wars destroying hand
How in that hour Of anguish,
When the baesmoke had cleared,
Iose thoughts Of English homes aud friends,
by absence more endaared.-
And the heavy sigh betokanod
What the faint lips could not say
How the soldiers heart was yearntns
For the tones Of far away;
For word OF e0mpassioni-
The touch of a kindly hand;
When Meicy's gentle angel
Before hun seemed TO sand
But twas womAns tenderness
That ealmed his troubled isars,-
That bound his wounds-ohesrsd his sad soul,
And stnunehed his flowing tears,

Aud ehefishes for aye,

The voice to ehesr-thO lips TO speak
OF Homes beyond the grave.
Re ours that humble mission
That seeks not earthly fame
TO give tho cup OF water,
