Stonewan Jackson.
"a Charade.)
written for the Dispatch)
A wager OF battle In days Of old
Confronted youth and a man:
from his fold,
The man was the chief OF his clan.
The man with his sword and his shield
and his spear
Looked down with contempt on his foe;
With a few Of my FIRST the youth
boldly drew near
And deHantly courted his blow.
The man in the pride OF his might and
his strength
Deridingly pressed to the fray,
In a trice on the plain outstretched at
his length
That boaster's life faded away.
My SECOND through the ages past
Ger Asian hill and plain
Has kept in ward the passes
OF China's broad domain.
My THIRD discloses an architects
name
Handed down from of old with boiste-
rous fame.
Though but one Of his works is known
among men,
The builders as famous as Christopher
Wren.
No sweeter word Is ever heard
To stir the font of feeling,
Or wake a deadened soul to life
Its hidden depths unsealing
Than that dear name my FOURTH
reveals
To man by sin denied
The name which links with earth and
Heaven
Madonna's holy child.
In behalf of his people my WHOLE
leaped forth
From obscurity into fame.
And through ages to come the nations
will yield
Obeisance to his name.
Tentless and hungry. half clad and half
shod.
A citizen soldiery followed his lead.
With his faith in their cause-his trust
IN their God.
In defence of their country to bleed,
'whelming and swift as the cataract's
force.
He bore down with his brain and their
Drawn.
And victory followed their march and his
plume
As the high noon succeedeth the dawn
A meteor's flight IL as brief ~ It's
bright
Like that was his fall as his rise.
But unlike In this-no trace OF its light
Survives mid the stars In the skies;
But for him as the ages roll on
Mid the shifting Of scenes in their
story.
His luminous pathway on history's page
VIII blaze In Its aureole OF glory.
