On fame's eternal camping-ground    Their silent tents are spread, And glory guards with solemn round    The bivouac of the dead. The neighing troop, the flashing blade,    The bugle's stirring blast, The charge, the dreadful cannonade,    The din and shout are past; Nor war's wild note, nor glory's peal    Shall thrill with fierce delight Those breasts that never more may feel    The rapture of the fight.                    --Theodore O'Hara.
