EASE BALL
TO THOSE WHO WAIT.
By Roscoe G.. Jamison.

ny hOSCOe y. JdHllSOu
Fear not, o Eager Hearts, that thou shalt be
AS outcasts still, when strikes the armed host
To free the world from ancient tyranny.
As God is God, thou art not wholly lost.
The Master Dramatist who forms this play
But leaves the gripping climax till the last,
He holds in store for thee a shining day,
In this world-tragedy, so deep and vast.
We see great armies led by obastful Pride,
While Mars, in fendish glee, shouts: LET them comet
And from the Shelltorn fields soon weeps a tide
OF sorrow forth to cleave the hearts at home.
Columbia sees at last, through tear-dimmed eyes,
How caste and prejudice have sapped her strength,
Then Truth will speak, and bid her to arise
And follow till she comes at length
To where you will be standing, patient still,
Waiting the call to serve your Country's needs,
And Truth will say: 81 saw at San Juan Hill
Black soldiers save the day by peerless deeds.
To save Old Glory now, o send them forth!
They fear not Death, nor He'll, when they can stand
And fight ufettered! - Then DER South and North
Will sound the bugle call, a full command,
To those who wait with faith and loyalty.
Then, bound on longer by a senseless hate,
Ye shall march forth, to prove, across the sea,
What things are written in the Book of Fate!
