»  ° Such is the death the soldier d1es:——— {
B   He falls,-—the column speeds away ; _  
· V ` it I Upon the dabliled grass he lies, ·
His brave heart following, still, the fray. l
The smoke wraiths drift among the trees,
Q The battle storms along the hill;
The glint of distant arms he sees, · ·
. He hears his comrades shouting still.
Z _ A glimpse of far-borne flags, that fade
'. ° . . . . l
· And vanish in the rolling din: T
He knows the sweeping charge is made, _
_ The cheering lines are closing in.
*   l» Uumindful of his mortal wound, ·
  He faintly calls and seeks to rise;
  But weakness drags him to the ground: ’
  Such is the death the soldier dies. .
