The appended words are taken from "United," words and music by w. c. Robey and published by Will Rossiter. It's the same patriotic spirit and hardly needs music. Here it is:

 the field and angry main We are ready to defend it, we will
 seek no outside aid The staunchest hearts that ever beat,
 are the blue and the grey brigade Forward we'll march with a step firm
 and true
 Around our Flag is halo of glory Ready and steady the Grey and the
 Blue
 Are telling the same old story. We have the boys that are ready. if
 you want to call them out With a step that's firm and steady,
 and a patriotic shout In the fiercest heat of battle, they will
 never be afraid You can depend upon the sons of the

 front
 Not a thought of the danger We are
 
 Bullets may rattle we will fight in the Loving the Flag that is waving.

 glad refrain Shoulder to shoulder we are eager for

 The Battle of Linden. n.*-CampbcI1. On Linden, when the sun was low, All bloodless lay the untrodden snow, And dark as winter, was the flow
 Of Iser, rolling rapidly. But Linden saw another sight, w nGn me QIlIl Ucdl, ot uCetN oA lliEoiA': Commanding fires of death to light
 The darkness of her scenery. Bv torch and trumpet fast array'd, Each horseman drew his battle blade, And furious every charger neigh'd,
 To join the dreadful revelry Then shook the hills with thunder riv'n, Then rushed the steed to battle drivn, And louder than the bolts of heaven, Far flash'd the red artillery. l And redder yet those fires shall glow On Linden's hills of blood-sta1n' d snow, And darker yet shall be the flow Of Iser, rolling rapidly. 1 ,Tis morn but scarce yon lurid sun 1 Can pierce the war-clouds, rolling dun, Where furious Frank, and fiery Hun Shout in the sulphurous canopy rI,he combat deepens.

that German spies were rare in this
