Is not as OF yore, I'm martial array,

But today. in the tents OF memory spread
On the shores where nation was born.

that are dead.
And speak OF the days That are gone,
While the mist OF the years. dark hang

The past and the present. shall rise.
And each scene OF those days by all shall
be seen
Meath the sunlight OF memory's skies.
We shall gaze through the lens by memo

And catch the bright CLEAN OF the bars
or that flag which went down. resplend-
antly zoned
By honor's bright circle OF stars.
And borne on the breeze by memory stir
red
The yell OF legions in gray,
As they rush to the charge. shall plainly
be heard
BY all who are tenting to-day.
And all shall be here. the living and dead,
And shall answer the roll OF the names,
When to-day It is called in the tents that
are spread
In memorys camp on the James.
