DECORATION.

Bring howers-the brightest and fairest,
From every hill and plain,
From baskie dell and valley
And from the distant main;
Gather them from the gardens,
And from the dollhouse too;
Bring them fresh and fragrant,
And shining through the dew.
Weave them in wreaths and garlands,
To lay on the soldiers graves
A tribute to the memory
OF those so true and brave:
Bring roses and the lilies
To 10y DER the sacred dead;
The myrtle and the cypress
To deck their lowly bed.
Bring flowers, all We children
OF the veterans Of that band,
Who gave their life an Offering
On the altar Of their land;
Bring flowers, lovely flowers,
Ye children, one and all,
As pure as the hands that hold them,
And fresh as the tears that fall.
Weep DER the graves Of the fallen
Ger the soldiers narrow bed;
For their life blood was a ransom;
For your liberty it was shed;
And hold that ground as followed,
Where lie those heroes dust,
And their memory ever cherished
As q most sacred trust.
They left their homes and loved ones,
In youth and manhoods prime
Went to the aid of their country,
In that dark and threatening time:
They went forth brave and valiant,
With hope strong in their heart,
That they could soon return again
No more with those loved ones to part.
Ii was fathers, brothers, husbands
The tenderest ties we know,
That was torn apart for freedom;
For 1t their blood must flow.
We now enjoy that priceless gift
That on the CORY field was worn.
Where many now lie sleeping
Beneath southern sun.
The orange and the lemon tree
Swing censers DER their graves,
And pour an oblation DER them
Richer than q sultan ever gave,
And flowers blue and golden,
And white as the drifting snow
Fall DER their dreamless bed
With the softest winds that blow.
