Yet proudly on, witt martial tread.
Behind the flag swept each gray head
The starry flag proud waved it's fold,
A greeting to these soldiers old;

Their only helmets hair of gray.
Proud flashed each eye with martial fire,
Proud the child led by grandsire

To pay their tribute to their dead.
Stern seemed to be each veterans face;
In thoughtful mood he kept his place,
And neither glanced to left right,
Though sometimes teardrops dmmed his sigh
For hating step and weight of years.
LIES burdens with it's cares and tears,
Cannot remove from heads of gray
The meaning Of Memorial day.
Their ranks are thinning out. and fast;
Soon all will go, een to the last,
For steadily, with measured tread,
They march to confines of the dead.
Break ranks foreverp' soon they'll hear,
Like bugle blast, and plain and clear.

And there each silvered head OF white
