But 20 for Seymour with all my soul,
And 50 viii the Rebel army

In new Confederate army
Bat after all they will have to say good by TO their
friends and why their well 10 the graceful
cadence Of classic verse
Good-by Horati0-IoOk al the writing
That speaks from the wall to you
You're tried iii the scales and been found wanting
Farewell, ola boy ad.eu.

And never attempt To no
President again when you race on the ocean
Along with L. 8. q.
In the meant ine, all things considered rest as
sured that
seymour's heart goes pta pat
Old Blars head goes whirliNR,
And they both feel very bad
AS they approach election, o.
Both OF them are IN great pam
Since they heard the news from Name,
And they can't tell what they want
Since they heard from old Vermont.
Both OF them are Copperhesds.
Both OF them arc Butternuts,
No such rowdy candidates
Can ever rnle this country, o.
Butternut. Democrat. Copperhead.

Hurrah for Grant and COlfaK, d.
Seymour beat old Pendeton,
Old Blair beat Vallandigham,
All their friends in Tebeldom
We're suited just exactly. D.
Old Bob Lee and Beauregard
Worked for Seymour very hard
But the hardest thing for them 20 bear
Was TO swallow that old sardine Frank Blair
Like sheep they've got TO follow him,

Such a pill 70 swallow, o.

Swallow him. ,s swallow ,n HIM s follow him.

Who are the friends OF Liberty,
The men who meath the Southern sky
Carried the banner OF the free.
Resolved TO conquer or 10 dief
Or they who IN the darkest hOur
That e'er eclipsed proud Freedoms sun
Come forth TO trample with their power
The victories our heroes won!

The purple robes OF state 10 wear,
And occupy great LncOln's chair
Now, BOYS, we've heard from Pennsylvania,
Ohio Indiana, and Nebraska. Three cheers!

Shouting the battle cry OF Freedom
Once seain brave boys-long meter-Rlse 1t!
