PRAY MAIDEN PRAY,

The following Is from Volume which viii !
hortly published at Richmond from the pen Of
gentleman who is known to many Of our citizens.
PRAY MAIDEN PRAY!
Maiden pray for thy lover now,
Through all this starry night,
Heaven prove suspicious to thy vowi
For with to-morrow's dawning light
We meet the foe in deadly fight.
Pray, maiden prayl
Maiden pray that the Banner high
Advanced, our cross may wave
And foemen's shot and steel defy
In triumph floating Ger the brave,
Who strike for freedom or the grave.
Pray, maiden pray.
Maiden pray for thy Southern land
Ofstreams and sun-lit skies,
See thou her living Greatness stand
While in her Hero-dust there lies
Whatever Glory deifes!
Pray, maiden pray!
Maiden pray that yon Trumpet blast
And Rocket's..signal light,
But summon squadrons thick and fast!
To win in our victorious FL ht,
For Home, for Freedom and the Right.
Pray, maiden pray!
