Conquered the lovely city lay
The flag which JACKSON bore
Waved proudly DER her Paradise
0fgroves and flowers no more.
The tattered banner CAMPBELL bore
From Tontezuma's cline, (2)

And then I'll grid my sabre on,
Which is both true and tried,
" And ere run from that /" last ditch (5)
Along sewannee's shore,
One hundred thousand Yankee hearts
Shall Ill il with their gore.
And in my vanguard's very front,
Such doughty deeds pll do,
That great Don QuixOte's ghost shall shout,
And Pantagruel's too.

Like horse-lies pin,
And when l strike Yankee skull,
