SONG OF THE SOUTHERN MAID.
My lover was a "soldier" boj7
Aa true as lie was bravej '
And when bis country Wanted it, ' - t
His life to her he gave.
When first he hea4 the tocsin note,
He boldly joined tbe yao;
And though in years he was a boy,
In deeds he was a man.
.When be iad donned his army grey,
And grasped his musket tight,
12 is bounding step was on the march,
Ills heart was in the fight.
Wherever doty beckoned him,
He saw no danger there;
Or saw with the scorn of one
Who would all danger dare.
No full-starred General was he,
' But he was truly more,
For on his breast the honored scars
Of many a fight he bore.
Nor -were his laurels less because
' He filled an bumble post;
Nor less the cause for which he died,
Because the cause was lost. .
And though no monument is raised
Above his lowly bed,
That grassy mound shall link his name
With our illustrious dead.
And lost to country and to mc,
. Who for us both wouJd live,
jday Heaven grant to him the boon
Which earth refused to give.
