Where foes no more molest
Nor sentry's shot alarms.
Ye have slept on the ground before
And started 70 your feet
At tho cannon's sudden roar
Or the drums redoubllng beat.
But In this camp OF death
No sound your slumber breaks.
Here Is no feYered breath.
No wound that bleeds and ache8.
All is repose and peace.
Untrampled lies tho sod.

Your silent tents OF green
We deck with fragrant flowers,
Yours has the suffering been;
The memory shall be ours.
