A battered poem prints rough lines praising courage and unity under fire. It invokes Sherman and battle cries like One country our country forever, urging steadfast support as flags and emblems endure despite ruin and blood. The piece frames loyalty and sacrifice amid storm and marching armies.
A solemn Civil War era poem laments fallen soldiers of the old brigade. The speaker honors veterans, describes cold winters, battles near forests, and graves scattered like Erstwhile works. The piece ends with a prayer for rest and hallowed turf.
