THE SLEEP OF THE BRAVE.

Sleep sweetly my heroes, The battle is OCT; The boom of the cannon Will disturb you no more. Sleep sweetly my heroes, The conquest is done; Our freedom secured
 Your victory won. Soft be the beds
 Of our heroes tonight, Meath coverlets of acacia And roses white. Pillow of frankincense And olive leaves, While you sleep, we'll bind Your record in golden sheaves. Sleep Sweetly my heroes While the soft zephyrs sigh, While the sentinel star Keeps her watch in the sky. Ye bugles sing truce
 Where the flowers of May Shed perfume OCT the beds Of the blue and the gray. Rest peacefully heroes Meath the green sod, While thy future lies hid In the bosom of God.
