AAdU COhOCS oOn II OhO y O0A
Above thy dead, to day, we strew
The victor Bay and burial Yew,
To tell thy fame in tears:
For tho thy starry Cross went down
Amid the wrathful fight,
Upon it's shining wreck we read
How hero hearts can break and bleed
Before they yield the right,
Land of the South! the sweet May
time
That woes thy buds and blooms,
Doth in it's fight adown the Spring
Its rosy grrland freely bring
To wreath thy place of tombs,
Where lowly winds like mourners
bend
To whisper to the brave,
Whose quiet brows,th cold beneath,
Are circied with the Laurel's wreath
That sparkles from the grave.
Land of the South! Dhy blades no more
Leap out in hands of steel.
But in their rust the record sleeps,
That jealous Honor steadfast keeps,
How SouthrOns sc 0rn tc kneel;
And on thy deeds shall Romance love
To rear her dazzling fame
And pilgrims come to haunt the Urns
Where Sorrow broods and Valor turns
To muse upon thy slain.
Land of the South! the stars that burst
Like blossoms from your sky,
Reflect in each hero's shade
Whose knightly deeds shall only fade
When t me itself snail die:
And future Bards shall sweetly wake
To thee their chosen Tyre,
And woman's lips shall hymn the praise
To childish cars in tender lays
OF Fallen Southern sire.
Land of the South! Bayard keeps
All mute his marble rest,
Within each grave whose storied clay
Lies in It's winding sheet of grey
Upon thy mother breast,
And now we bring our floral gifts,
And braids of Immortelle,
AS tribute to the courtly dead
Who followed where thy banner led,
And with that banner fell.
Land of the s outh! thy squadrons rush
Down in the fray no more,
Mid rife fash and sabre stroke
And scenes of blood and battle smoke,
AS in the days of yore,
But ali! the lightning track they left
Is paved. with Spartan dust,
And legends linger where they rode,
That gid the page of Valor's Code,
OF how they kept tn sir trust.
Land of the South! a halo CLEANS
Upon thy midnight gloom,
And round thy broken shrine it throws
A wreath of light that const Ant glows
About the martyrs tomb,
And from thy darkest ruins spring,
Where life and hope are dumb,
Traditions that shall live in song
That other Minstrel shall prolong
In days that are to come.
Land of the South! about thy wrecks
The fires of Courage play.
And Glory gathers from thy grief
The grandest gleanings in his sheaf
To garner them for aye;
For when the last thrnb of thy drums
Grow faint upon the air,
Immortals bore on wings of flame
The echo up the sleeps of Fame
And left it living there.
Land of the Sout'n! no martial muse
A purer theme shall teach,
Than how thy co1ors swift and far
Swept o'er the purple field of war
And lit the deadly breach:
And Vandal pen can ne'er profane,
Or blight with venom stroke,
A single star that hung thereon
And shone till every hope was gone
To dare the despot's yoke.
