To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
So sweetly prattling in his cherub glee, Leers on his lifeless sire with infant wile, And plays and plucks him for a parent's smile !
But who, upon the battle-wasted plain, Shall count the faint, the gasping, and the slain ? Angel of Mercy ! ere the blood-fount chill, And the brave heart be spiritless and still, Amid the havoc thou art hovering nigh, To calm each groan, and close each dy- ing eye, And waft the spirit to that halcyon shore, Where war's loud thunders lash the winds no more !
ROBE...RT MONTGOMERY.
413 POETRY OF THE WAR.
PATRIOTS AND PIRATES.
WE praise the heroes of a long-dead time, The Spartan or the Roman or the Gaui, We flatter in oration or in rhyme The dusty corpses deaf and dumb to ail. But here we find beside our very door True heroes who are battling for the right- True heroes, brave as any braves of yore, True heroes, targets of the tyrant's might.
We prate of wrongs our own forefathers felt, But these have suffered more a thousand fold: We boast of brave blows those forefathers dealt, But unto these, our neighhors, we are cold.
