OF history enwreathed in fame The
Sword of Lee" rings like the battle-cry
Of those who were greater in defeat than
IN victory. We reproduce it for the Vet
Grams and others who loved the Cause ;
Forth from its scabbard pure and
bright,
Flashed the sword of Lee
Far in front of the deadly fight,
High DER the brave in the cause of right
Its stainless sheen like beacon light,
Led us on to victory
Out Of its scabbard, where full long
1t slumbered peacefully
Reused from its rest by the battle song,
Shielding the feeble, shifting the strong,
Guarding the right and avenging the
wrong,
Cleaned the sword of Lee.

Forth from its scabbard, high in air.
Beneath Virginia'S sky
And they who saw it cleaning there.
And knew who bore it, knelt to swear
That where that sword led they would
dare
| To follow and to die.
Out of its scabbard! Never waved
Sword from stain so free,
Nor purer sword led drawer band,
Nor Drawer bled for brighter land
Nor brighter land had a cause as grand,
Nor cause, a chief like Lee.
Forth from its scabbarde How we
prayed
hat sword might victor bee
And when our triumph was delayed,
And many heart grew sore afraid,
We still hoped on, while cleaned the
blade
OF noble Robert Lee.
Forth from its scabbard +! All in vain.
Forth flashed the sword of Lee!
lis shrouded now in its sheath again,
1t sleeps the sleep of the noble slain,
Defeated, yet without a stain,
Proudly and peacefully.
