The Despair of the Seventh

The Despair Of the Seventh
We will go to our tents and lie down In de-
spair
And we'll drape in deep mourning Old
Glory so fair;
We will wait on the shore In our anger and
Where the winds from Manila speak softly
and low
OF tropical land with It's numberless
Where the laurels are won by our comrades
in arms,
Where our bayonets have flashed and our
cannon have pealed:
But Alger has spoken, our doom 1t is sealed.
When the call of our country flashed over
the land
Did we falter or shrink at the word n COM
mand?
Did we rally from mountain, from valley
and plain.
And inscribe on our banner Remember the
Maine?"
Did we come, did we hasten our station to
fill
With a soldiers desire and a patriots will?
Would we face the proud foe. brave the
cannon and mine?
Great Alger but speaks and we're left to
repine.
Oh, mighty commander is Russell A
Such a lion for a roar, such an ass for
bray:
He will carve proud niche in the temple
of fame
And the traitor and imbecile honor his
name.
In the bay of San Pedro his casket shall
rest,
And the ships of our commerce sail over
his breast
A breakwater monument DER him shall rise,
And Huntington only shall weep when he
dies
o Russell. great Russell we honor our
Boon friend of our Coils (most wonderful
thief,
We wait on thy pleasure. thy slightest
command,
While we live on half rations and camp In
the sand.
If the war should not end until we have
grown gray
And the hosts OF our comrades are slain in
the fray,
Till our children unborn shall have grown
to be men,
o mighty commander, remember us then!
o chieftain most mighty, most wise and
most great,
We but ask for six feet of the soil Of our
state.
Be It known, If God wills and your honor
shall please
We will will pass our whole life in the sand
and the feas,
And proudly lie down when the summons
shall come
With the sound Of the bugle, the tap Of the
drum,
With this simple inscription Ger each pa
triot breast,
"IIe waited for Alger and God knows the
rest"
