He charged, and in that charge condensed His all of hate and all of fire; He sought to blast us in his scorn, And wither us in his ire. HE CHARGED AND IN THAT CHARGE CONDENSED HIS ALL OF HATE AND ALL OF FIRE HE SOUGHT TO BLAST US IN HIS CORN AND WITHER US IN HIS IRE
- Brief respite from throes of war: To the laurel glade by the Wilderness grim, Through climaxed victory naught shall dim, Even unto death it piloted him-- Stonewall followed his star. Its lead he followed in gentle ways Which never the valiant mar; A cap we sent him, bestarred, to replace The sun-scorched helm of war: A fillet he made of the shining lace Childhood’s laughing brow to grace-- Not his was a goldsmith’s star. O, much of doubt in after days Shall cling, as now, to the war; Of the right and the wrong they’ll still debate, Puzzled by Stonewall’s star: “Fortune went with the North elate” “Ay, but the south had Stonewall’s weight, And he fell in the South’s vain war.” Gettysburg. The Check. (July, 1863.) O pride of the days in prime of the months Now trebled in great renown, When before the ark of our holy cause Fell Dagon down-- Dagon foredoomed, who, armed and targed, Never his impious heart enlarged Beyond that hour; god walled his power, And there the last invader charged.
