1 watched with Thomas while his wary glance Marked the rash foes their heedless lines advance ; OUR HEROIC THEMES.
Step after step he lured their willing feet Into the toils, from whence was no retreat Then with a swoop, as when the eagle swings Out of his eyry, with the roar of wings, The veteran fell upon his venturous prey, — And — let Bragg end it, if there 's aught to say.
I saw with wonder Sherman's Titan line Pour from the mountains to the distant brme.
Sweep treason's cradle bare of all... its brood.
And turn its garden to a solitude.
Fear ran before him. Famine groaned behind.
And, following Famine, came the humble mind.
Who felt a care within his bosom grow.
Of more than pity for the hapless foe.
Or spent a fear on that which Fate's decrees Already wrote amongst her victories.
When in the tumult of the battled van Shone Fortune's darling, mounted Sheridan ?
10 OUE HEROIC THESIES.
Rapid to plan and peerless in the fight, He plucked Fame's chaplet as by sovereign right ; Emerged triumphant from a wild retreat, And blazoned victory's colors on defeat.
