The last brigade is passing into the shades Of night,
Who once We're VaIors vanguard, are marching Onto

To left they scatter, the men who wore the gray
Out of the night they are passing into the light of day.
Oh, there were deeds Of valor upon that field of blood
Where young Confederacy and Southlands honor stood!
So as each one-each dear, familiar form we knew
Is lost to sight around the bending road, into
His Southland's history we look, remembering
The glory of his youth; we turn each page and bring
To mind each gallant deed he helped to blazon there;
There was no deed Of courage that he did not dare!
Oh, there were deeds of valor upon that field of blood
Where young Confederacy and Southland's honor stood!
And so, as each dear ~lingerer of that brave band
Into the shadows passes, he leaves a mourning land.
All, yes, departing heroes, your Southland mourns for you;
Her shining ones cher gallant sons), most brave,most true!
