s. lie peeling drum rs heard,
Soldiers swiftly pass the word,
81 "Prepare, prepare We brave;"
s The foe already takes the field,
And swear by Holy Cross no yield,
Shall stain freemsn's grave
They strike their tents and clash their arms
Without trace OF wars alarms,
So eager they for life;
They hasten on their march Of death,
And each in each doth stife breath,
AS pluDginc IN the strife.
No halt is made for bleeding friepds,
As swift they to the conflict wend
To strike yet nearer stin,
Their arms now tiDged with human blood
That drenches Earth like iucensed food
And dyes the nsighb'ring ril.
The pennant high above is borne,
without a star or stripe vet torn,
Amid the battle cry;
Their maddened foes receive the shock
But stand as 6rra- so,;l ~
While comrades round them die.
o n, on they dash DER bloody plain,
Nor heed the requiem for the slain
Whose span of life hath sped;
The warriors yell ascending there
Like fiends let loose in upper air
To revel o'er the dead
The torrent rush is near at end,
The freeman's staff begins to bend,
And with submission bow;
The few that Of that host remain
In thrilling accents then excInim,
'ln mercy spare us now."
Ye victors in battle, gaze DER the dead,
And hear from the wounded their moan,
And know from their hearts the life blood
you shed
And sigh that it is not your own.
They're gone. their battles and strife are now
o'er
Their spirits have passed to their bourne,
With the redeemed and blest they now soar
While heroes are left here 70 mourn.

But it happened to me, in the of the last ses
