Inscriptions
Rest on Embalmed and Sainted Dead,
Dear as the Blood Ye Gave.
No Impious Footstep Here Shall Tread
The Herbage of your Grave.
On Fame's Eternal Camping-Ground,
Their Silent Tents are Spread,
And Glory Guards with Solemn Round
The Bivouac of the Dead.
The Muffled Drum's Sad Roll Has Beat
The Soldier's Last Tattoo.
No More on Life's Parade Shall Meet
That Brave and Fallen Few.
