House the horse in ermine   For the foam flake blew White through the red October; He thundered into view; They cheered him in the looming, Horseman and horse they knew.

urses from the port Who shutters, jammed, locked up this Man-of-Sin. No pause or stay. They made a din Like hammers round a boiler forged; Now straining strength tangled itself with strength, Till Hate her will disgorged. The white flag showed, the fight was won-- Mad shouts went up that shook the Bay; But pale on the scarred fleet’s decks there lay A silent man for every silenced gun. And quiet far below the wave, Where never cheers shall move their sleep, Some who did boldly, nobly earn them, lie-- Charmed children of the deep. But decks that now are in the seed, And cannon yet within the mine, Shall thrill the deeper, gun and pine, Because of the Tecumseh’s glorious deed. Sheridan at Cedar Creek. (October, 1864.) Shoe the steed with silver That bore him to the fray, When he heard the guns at dawning-- Miles away; When he heard them calling, calling-- Mount! nor stay: Quick, or all is lost; They’ve surprised and stormed the post, They push your routed host-- Gallop! retrieve the day.
