sword,
Mid little ones who weep or won
der
And bravely speaks the cheering
What though her heart be rent
asunder,
Doomed nightly in her dreams to
hear
The bolts of death around him rat
tie,
Hath shed as sacred blood as e'er
Was poured upon the field Of bat
tie!
The mother who conceals her grief
While to her breast her son she
| presses,
Then breathes few brave words and
brief,
Kissing the patriot brow she
| blesses,
With no one but her secret God
To know the pain that weighs upon
her,
Sheds holy blood as e'er the sod
Received on Freedoms field of
honor!
