(November, 1863.) A kindling impulse seized the host Inspired by heaven's elastic air;[9] Their hearts outran their General's plan, Though Grant commanded there   Grant, who without reserve can dare; And, "Well, go on and do your will" He said, and measured the mountain then: So master riders fling the rein   But you must know your men.

own redeemed, Give thanks devout; nor, being thankful, heeds The grimy slur on the Republic’s faith implied, Which holds that Man is naturally good, And--more--is Nature’s Roman, never to be scourged. Look-out Mountain. The Night Fight. (November, 1863.) Who inhabiteth the Mountain That it shines in lurid light, And is rolled about with thunders, And terrors, and a blight, Like Kaf the peak of Eblis-- Kaf, the evil height? Who has gone up with a shouting And a trumpet in the night? There is battle in the Mountain-- Might assaulteth Might; ’Tis the fastness of the Anarch, Torrent-torn, an ancient height; The crags resound the clangor Of the war of Wrong and Right; And the armies in the valley Watch and pray for dawning light. Joy, Joy, the day is breaking, And the cloud is rolled from sight; There is triumph in the Morning For the Anarch’s plunging flight; God has glorified the Mountain Where a Banner burneth bright, And the armies in the valley They are fortified in right.
