THE BROKEN MUG.
ODE ON A LATE MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT IN THE
8II EN AN DO AII VALLEY.
My mug is broken, my heart is eml I
What woes can fate still hold in store?
Tiio friend 1 cherished a thousand days
Is smashed to pieces on the floor !
Is shattered and to Lumho gone,
I'll sec my mug no more !
Relic it was of joyous hours
Whose golden memories still allure?
When coffee made of rye we drank,
And grey was all the dress we wore!
When we were paid some cents a mnnili
But never ask >1 for more.
In marches long by day and night,
In raids, hot charges,^saock* of war,
Strapped on the saddle at my back
This faithful comrade still I bore?
This old companion true and tried,
I'll never carry more
Bright days ! when young in heart and hope
The pulse leaned at the words 'La (Jlorit
AVhcn the grry cried?*? hot fight !
Why we have one to four!"
When but to sec the foetnen's face
Was all they asked?no more.
From the Rapidan to Gettysburg
Hard bread' bchiud 'Hour Krout' before
This friend went with the cavalry
And heard the jarring cannon loar
In front of Cemetery II ill?
Good Heavens! how they did roar.
Then back again, the foe behind,
Back to the "old Virginia shore,"
Some dend and wounded left?some holes
In flags the sullen grey backs bore ;
This mug had made the great campaign
And we' 1 had gone once more !
Alas ! we never went again !
The red cross banner, slow but sure
" Fell back"?we bade to sour Krout
(Like the love of I.enore)
A long, sad, lingering farewell?
To tase its joys no more.
But still we fought and nlo hard bread
Or starved?good friend cur woes deplore 1
And still this faithful friend remained
Riding behind me as before?
The friend on march, in bivouac,
When others were no more.
now oil wc drove tin: itorseman blue
In summer bright or wintry frorc!
IIow oft before the Southern charge
Thro' fiehl aud wood the blue bird.- tore!
I'm " harmonized" to day, but ^iink
I'd like to charge once more.
Oh yc9 ! we're nil "fraternal" now i
Purged of our sins we're clean aud pure, !
Congress will " reconstruct" us so n ? |
But no grey people on that door 1
I'm harmonised?"so called '?but long
To sec those times once tnoic.
Guy days 1 the sun was brighter then.
And w.1 were happy though >o poor !
That past comes back a- 1 behold.
My shattered friend upon the tloor,
My splintered, useless, ruined mug,
From which I'll drink no more.
IIow many lips I'll love for aye,
While heart ami memory endure,
Ilave touched this broken enp and laughed?
IIow they did laugh?in days of yore I
Those days we'd call a "beauteous dream
Tf they had been no more!"
Dear comrades, dead this many a day !
I saw you weltering in your gore
After those days amid the pines
On the Kappuiituiuock shore!
When the joy ot life was much to me.
But your warm hearts wore more!
Tours was the grand heroic nerve,
That laughs amid the storm of war?
Souls that "loved much" your native land,
Who fought ami died therefor !
You gave your youth, your brains, your
arms,
Your blood?you had no more !
You lived and died true to your flag!
And now your wounds tire healed?but
soro
Are many hearts that think of you,
When you have "gone before,"
Peace, comrade! tiod bound up those forms
They are "Whole" forevertnore !
Tlmtn litw (l.lu 1.?W I . --I - 1
IILb loo!?the rnuu we ull adore?
That cavalier of cavalier*,
Whose voice will ring no more,
Whoso plume will float amid the storm
Of battle never more !
Not on this idle page I write
That name of names, shrined in the core
Of every heart! peace! foolish pen,
Ilush ! words so cold and poor !
His sword is rust; the blue eye dim,
His bugle rounds no more!
Vet even here write this, lie charged
As Hupert, in the years before,
And when his stern hard work was done,
His griefs, joys, battles o'er?
Ilis mighty spirit r >de tli - M. rm,
. And led his men once more !
He 1 ics beneath his native sod,
Where violets spring <>r frost is hoar;
nc rocks not?charging : madrons watch
Ilis raven plume no more,
That smile we'll sec, that voice we'll hear,
That hand we'll touch no more.
Mj' foolish mirth is quenched in tears ;
Poor fragments strewed upon the floor,
You are a type of nobler things,
That find their use no moreThings
glorious once, now trodden down?
That make us smile no more!
Of coumgc, pride, high hopes, flout hearts,
Hard stubborn nervo, devotion pure,
Beating his wings against the burs,
Tlie prisoned eagle tried i soar!
Out liuttclic<l, o'crwhelnied, we sti uggled still
Bread faile*l?WO fought no niorc.
Lies in the 'lust the shattered stall".
That bore aloft 011 sea and bore,
That biasing Hag, amid the storiu !
And none are now so p >or?
So poor to do it t overt nee,
Now when it flames no niarc !
But it is glorious in the dust.
Sacred till time shall he 110 more,
Sparc it, fierce editors, your scorn,
The dread Rebellion's" o'er!
Furl the grent flag?hide cross and star,
Thrust into darkness star and bar,
But look across the ages far
it llames forovcrnioro !
