"Here, on this new Themopyln,

Thus Travis from the rampant cried;
And when his warriors saw the foe,
Like whelming billOWs move below
At once each dauntless heart replied,
"Welcome the Spartan's death

We fall-we debut our expiring breath

They come like autumn leaves they fall;
Yet, hOrdes on hOrdes they onward rush
With CORY tramp they mount the walls,
Till numbers the defenders crush,
Till falls their flag where none remainl
