And keeps . tryst Of the vanished years
With the dear dead lover who marched away.
Her whisened tresses were brown and bright.
Her cheek was pink dsmask rose,
When ne clasped her close In 9 last embrace
While about them nutsered the orchards

The bsgle called in the sunlit morn;
Bsyonets glistened and flags were gay,
He turned 70 wave her long adieu,
The brave young lover WHO marched away.
To the silent city above the town,
With garlands laden yet stfll they pass
But she seeth only 3 curly head
And broken sword in the trampled grass.
She waveth wreath of heliotrope,
And heareth even the busie play
That is mute with rust In the moldered hand
OF the gallant lover who marched away.
The flowers have fallen about her feet,
Her lips are pale and her.hngers chill.
Far above the blue OF the crystal sky
Her spirits follow the bugle still.
It's siivery melody leads her on,
TIL far in world Of fadeless Missy
She piights the troth Of her youth again
With the handsome lover who marched sway.
There was never shot that screamed and fell
And never bayonet thrust went through
The dauntiess breast OF . soidisr boy,
But pierced the heart Of . woman. too.
From end TO end Of the land they sit,
By desolate hearths, alone and gray,
And wait for the ghostly bugie call
And the soldier lover who marched away.
