not for countless tomes Of war's and kingcraft's leaden hist'ry, Would I thy charming legend lose Or view it in the bloodless hues Of fabled myth or myst'ry. ii. Thou tiny pearl of Demagogues ! Thou blue-eyed rebel blushing traitor ! Thou Sans-culotte, with dimpled toes, Whose Red cap is an op'ning rose Thou trembling agitator ! GOBI V A 73 III. We must believe in thee ! Our ranks Of champions loom with faces grimy, Fierce Tylers, from the anvil torn, Rough-chested Tells with palms of horn- Fou...l Cades, from ditches slimy ! IV. Knit brows, fierce eyes, and sunken cheeks, Fill up the vista stern and shady ; Our one bright speck, we cannot spare, Our reg'ment's sole Vivandiere Our little dainty lady ! v. No, she was true ! the story old, As any crumbling, Saxon castle, Firm at its base : she liv'd, and moved, And breath'd, and all around her, lov'd Lord, lackey, hound and vassal ! VI.
