THE B1voUAo OF THE DEAD.

The muffled drums sad roll has beat
The soldiers last tattoo;
No more on life's parade shall meet
That brave and fallen few.
On flames eternal camping ground
Their silent tents are spread,
And glory guards, with solemn round,
The bivouac of the dead.
The neighing troop. the flashing blade,
The bugle's stirring blast,
The charge, the dreadful cannonade,
The din and shout are past;
Nor war 8 wild note. nor glOry's peal,
Shall thrill with fierce delight
Those breasts that never more may feel
The rapture of the fight.

Sons of the Dark and Bloody Groundl
e must not siumber there,
Where stranger steps and tongues re-
sound
Along the Needless air;
Your own proud lands heroic soil
Shall be your filter grave:
She claims from war its richest spoil
The ashes of her brave.
On marble ninstrel's voiceless stone
In deathleSs song shall tell,
When many a vanished year hath flown,
The story how he fell;
Nor wreck, nor change, nor winters
blight.
Nor tines remorseless doom,
Can dim one ray of holy light
That gilds your glorious tomb

|acould l have had my master 5 chance 10

Had ne been placed where / was placed.
men would not praise his name.
Had been favored as he was would have
greater famei
They that ignore me now would all be
sycophants, to dance
Attendance on me here If 1 had only had
his chancei"
The wires whereby mems messages are
sent beneath the seas.
The cleaning rails Ger which men speed
what time they loll at ease,
The graceful domes that rise until they
seem to pierce the sky,
The mighty ships that cleave the main as
fast as eagles fly.
The disks and tubes through which men
see Ger spaces broad txpanse
Are not the works of him who sighed to
have some others chance.
The songs that live through centuries are
not the songs of men
Who longed for favors others knew and
tossed away the pen;
The names upon the noble arch that makes
the artist glad
Are not the names of men VINO yearned for
chances others had!
OF all the wonders of our age that rise at
every glance
None came from him who might do much
had he some others chance.
