MAN WAS NOT MADE TO
MOURN.
There is a voice which haunts me still,
WheiVer on earth L be ;
In lonely vale, on lofty hill,
And on the distant sea?
f hear it iri the silent night,
And at the breale of morn ;
And aye it crieth?dark or light?
lYIan was not made to mourn !
In ev'ry stream that seaward flows,
That voice salutes mine ear;
In every wind that round me blows,
Its thrilling notes I hear ;
In ev'ry sound of Nature's heart,
The cheerful or forlorn,
This ever bears the better part?
Ytn 11 \x*no mn/lti /> tr*am m 1
itiiwi ?? u?; uvb iiiuuv IU I11UU1U ;
The sun that glads the summer noon,
The light that blesseth all,
The myriad stars, the quiet moon,
The showers from Heaven that fall,
The flowers which in our meadows
Our mountain paths adorn? [grow,
All, all, in their own fashion, show
Man was not made to mourn !
All Nature cries aloud?but man
Regards not Nature's voice ;
Perverteth her benignant plan,
Her workmanship destroys?
From her fair boolc the brightest page
With impious hand has torn?
Yet still she cries, from uge to age,
Man was not made to mourn !
O gentlest mother! may thy child
Ji,re long tny lesson read ;
Embrace thy precepts, loving, mild,
Thy fraternizing creed :
Then shall the blessed end be known
For which he has been born ;
And all shall feel, from zone to zone,
Man was not made to mourn !
M A RS UAL SOU LT.
Horn of humble parents, entering the
army as a private soldier, musket in
hand, he rose to be Marshal "?f the Empire,
Duke of Dalmatia, and Peer of
France. He early exhibited his wonderful
coolness in the hour of danger.
At the battle of Fleurus, General
Marceau commanding the right wing
under Lefobvre, was routed and forced
to fall back. In his agony he sent to
Soult lor four battalions, that he might
regain his iost position.
Soi.lt refused.
t; Give them to me," exclaimed the
mortified and indignant Marceau, i! or I
will blow my brains out."
Soult coclly replied that to do it would
endanger the whole division. Being
then only a mere aid-decamp, and unknown.
his refusal astonished Marceau,
who asked in a rage.?
Who arc you?"
" Who ever I am," replied the imperturbable
soldier, " I am calm, which
you arc not. do not kill yourself, but
Ion fl An rnur tn/jn Ia flirt o orrrn on/1
via j will MJU1I IVJ L11 V> VUUI ^ V/j UUU
you shall have the four battalions as
soon as we can spare them."
His advice had scarcely been given,
before the enemy were upon them, and
side by side these two men raged through
the battle like lions. After the battle
was over Marceau held out his hand to
Soult saying,
' Colonel, forgive the past, you have
this day given me a lesson, which 1
shall never forget. You have in fact
gained the battle."
This is a fine illustration of Soult's
character.
" Cool, collected, and self reliant, the
tumult of battle and chaos of defeat, never
disturbed his perception or confused
his judgment. At Austerlitz, he did the
?? ? ? 41,: . ? T\T 1 A- *-?
oumu iiiiuy iu iiiipuiuuil. AS LSOnaparte
gave him command of the centre,
that day, he simply said :?
" As for you Soult, I have only to say,
act as you always do "
In the heat and terror of battle, an
aid-de-camp burst in head-long gallop
into the presence of Soult, bearing orders
that he should immediately carry
the heights of Pratzen.
" I will obey the Emperor's orders as
soon as I can," replied the chieftain,
"but this is not the proper time."
Bonaparte was in a perfect fury at his
answer, and sent another aid-de-camp
with peremptory orders, but before he
could diliver them, "the proper time had
arrived," and the awful column of Soult
was in motion, and the next moment his
head was enveloped in the smoke of
cannon, and in a few minutes afterward,
torn and mangled, appeared upon the
crest of the hill where it struggled for
victory, and won it. Soult had delayed
the charge because the enemy were extending
their lines and weakning their
centre. Bonaparte saw at once the reason
of the delav. iinrl struck with ndmi.
ration at his behavior, soon after rode up
to him, and in presence of the whole
staff, exclaimed,
" Marshal, I acount you the ablest
petitioner in the empire."
