IENT FOR The "BOIS IN
GREY"


L4uENT FOR TIE "BOIS IN
GREY"
BY V. NJ. S.
We're weeping, OH, we're weeping
For our gallantzones i'll grey.
Who shared with us the biyouac
At close of many day.
We are weeping for the dear ones
Whose march of life is DER,
Who have fordcd the dark river
And reached the farther shore.
Fh,v were brave and gallant soldiers,
Meath the green seward let them lle'
Till the revcillG is sounded
BY the trumpet from, the sky
But the saddest tear that molstens
Their hallowed graves-ls shed,
While memory pondcrs DER the past,
Aud asks-why arc they dead!
Columbia spread her banner
From old Atlantic's side,
To where the sun sinks YEARLY
In dark Pacific's tide.
To Northern climes she reached,
To its dark and pozen land,
And clarped within her loving palm
The tropics swarthly hand.
In every clmc--in every land,
On every tide and sea,
Her banner called to all mankind
"A refuge seek in me-"
She stood like Waterman on tho tower,
The guardian of mans rights,
Our mother country, far away,
Grew weary of the sight.
She stirred the enyious spirit,
IL ! no Il n ry brand
Till fierce commotion, civil strife,
And turmoil, filled the land.
Then rose Columbia in her might
And said" my children. all
I've reared for You this spacious tower,
It's columns shall not fall
No stork nor stone shall any tear
It's massive wall 'saway,
Tie Temple built, iciH, it stand
Till time shall pas away.
Oh. sad, that warning was not heard,
BY our heroes dear, in grey,
Fer they raised their hands that tower to
fell,
Those stones to tear away.
For Columbia rose in might and power,
a scourge in her strong right hand,
As n father correcteth an erring son.
She chastened the erring band
No greater the fault of the dear ones gone,
Than those who linger behind.
They, stobborn broke when the tempest
come.
JTe bored meath the rushing wind,
The tempest is DER, the air is free,
The clouds of smoke are fled,
Columbia weeps DER her erring ones,
And her army of the dead,
Oh never again may her children dear
Mingle as foes in the battle fray.
Nor the hand of the gallat boy in blue,
Be raised gainst the one in grey.
Across the graves, where the grey and blue
Do rest, and the roses bloom,
Let us cross our hands in friendly grasp
4s9dnd weep DER our brother tomb.
And meier again may the sounds OF strife
In brothers voice be heard,
But friendly tone, and genial laugh,
Aud a kind and pleasant word,
Then our land shall be bless'd, her fields
and hills,
Shall be glad the live-long day,
And beside the cot of the boy i'll blue
Stand that of the boy in grey.

SOWING IND RE4PING.

Are we sowing seeds ofkindness?
They shall blossom bright ere long,
Are we sowing seeds of discord!
They shall ripen into wrong.
Are we sowing seeds of honors
They shall bring forth golden grain,
Are we sowing seeds of falsehood :?
We shall yet reap bitter pain.
Whatso'er our sowing be,
Reapng, we its fruit must see.
We can never be too careful
What the seed our hands shall SOW;
Love from love is sure to ripen,
Hate from hate is sure to grow.
Seeds of good or i'll we scatter
Hcedlessly along our way;
But glad OF grievons frnitage
Waits us at the harvest day.
Whatso'er our sowing be,
Reaping, we its fruit must see.
