During the time the ark was floating

THE OLD BLUE COAT.

The following ballad is from the PEN OF
Bishop Burgess OF Maine, and was contrib
uted BY him to the book published and
sold at the sanitary fair held in Baltimore.
You asked me, little one. Why bowed,
Though never passed the msn befores
Because my heart was full and proud
when saw the old blue coat he wore:
The blue great-coat, the aky-blus cost,
The old blue coat the soldier wore
know mot. I, what weapon he chose.
what chief he followed. what badge he
bore;
Enough that In the front Of foes,
His country's blue grcat-cost he wore.
Perhaps he wAs born In . forest hut,
Perhaps he had danced on palace floor;
To want or wealth my eyes were shut
only marked the coat he wore.
He might have no skill to read or write,
Or be might be rich In learned lore;
But knew he could make his mark In fight
And nobler gown no scholar wore.
He had worn II long and borne IL far.
And perhaps. on the red virginian shore,
From midnight chill till the morning star
That warm great-soat the sentry wo.s-
The garb of honor tells enough,
Though It's story guess NO more.
The heart II covers 10 made OF such stuff
That the coat 10 mail the soldier wore.
He may hang IL up when Peace sh1li come.
And the moths may hrdit behind the door,
But his children will point, when they hear
the drum,
To the proud old cost their father wore.
And 20. my child. win you and 1,
For whose fair home their blood they pour.
Still bow the head, ~ one gces BY
who weara the coat the soldier wore:
The blue great coat, the sky-blue cost.
The old blue coat the soldier wore.
