o1H Hi4s, no, mug IVfA, 1861
Touch him tenderly, gently raise
The fallen hero; let his prais,
Sound sweetly through all future days,
For he was brave aud true
Lean him against manly breast,
Close to the heart that loved him best
Like tired traveller taking his rest
Undor the arch Of blue.
Then bear him to some sylvan shade.
Where dew falls from the dropping blade,
Like tears from a sad-hearted maid
Whose grief no words unfold
Where the soft wind in sorrow signs.
Among wild flowers whose pleasant ave,
Repeat the beauty Of the skies;
Starlight, and blue, and gold.
Brush from bis brow the wind tossed hair,
Mingled like cloud and sunshine there,
Kiss the cold cheek so pale aud fair;
In silent sorrow weep
Fold his white hands upon hi, bre,s,
And when the day fadesin the west
Under the green tree let him rest
There let the Patriot sleep.
Make his grave where the soft green sod,
By vandal foot hath ne'er been trod.
Where sweet flowers the smile of Col
'Bove the Patriots CORY bel,
Over Linn let fadeless tree
Emblem Of Hope and Liberty
Arise; his epitaph shall be
Sweet hoNers-yef ,rhfss 6nS ,,6
Bury him where the brook shall sin.
His requiem. and returning spring
Shall come with bloom and rustling wing,
To deck his grave for aye;
And Heaven shall watch with starry eyes
That sleep not in the stopping skies,
The tomb to which angel hies
To roll the stone away.
