Nothing but flags. but simple flags.
Tattered and and hanging In rags;
And we walk benea th them I'm careless tread,
Nor think OF the hosts of the mighty dead
That have marched beneath them in days gone by.
With a burning cheek and kindling eye.
And have bathed their folds with their young lie

And dying blessed them and blessing. died.
Nothing hut flags. vet methinks at night
They tell each other their tales or fright.
And dim spectres come. and their thin arms Irvine
As the word Il given, they charge they form.
And the dim hall rings with the battles storm
And once again through the smoke and strife,
Those colors lead to Nations life.
Nothing but flags vet they're bathed In tears.
They tell of trlumphs. of hopes, Of fears;
or a mothers prayer. II boy away,
or a serpent crushed Of the coming day;
Silent. they speak. and The tear will start
As stand beneath them with throbbing heatt,
And think OF those who are ne'er forgot,
Their flags came home. why come they not?
Nothing but flags yet hold our breath.
Ard gaze with at those types o! death;
Nothing but flags yet the thought Will come
The heart must pray though the life be dumb.
They arr sacred. purt. az" can 500 no stalh

Baptized In blood. our purest. best
