The conquered 31(imeiir.
Furl that 1.lanner, for 'tis weary;
Iloundlt its staff 'tis drooping dreary
Furl it, fold it, It Is best; -
For thCre'5 not a 111111 to wave It,
And there's niot a sword to save it,
And there's not, one left to lave it
In the blood which heroes gave it t
And its foes nimw SCo111 an(d brave it
Furl it. hide it- let it rest.
Take that Ianner, 'tis tlitteled
Brokena isa its stafT and slanttered
And tiho valiant hosts are scattered
Over whom it floated high.
Oh it's hard for us to fold it ;
Hard to think there's nione to hold it;
1Hard that th os who i(Once unrolled it
Now must furl it with a sigh.
Furl that B3nin aer, forIl it sadly,
Once tenl thouasaln ds hailed it gladly,
And tel thousands ily, aly,
Swore it shoul forever wave
Swore that foaaa 1's Sword should ncycr
Hearats like theirs entwined dissever,
Till tiat flag should float forever.
(er their free loin or tleir grave.
Furl it, for t ie hrn ds that grasped it,
And tlie hands that foaidly clasped it,
Cold anid dead tre lying low;
And tlit launter-it is trailing,
While aroid it sounads tiae wailing
Of its people inl their woe.
FIr-, though 1 a1CoIIuero (1, they adiore it,
Lo e the cal, dead lanalds tihat bore it,
Weep for thost. wihat fell before it,
Par'dtiin tho'e who frailed and taIre it,
But, tah. wildly thecy deplore it,
Now who furl alnd fold it so.
-url (hat linniaer. true *tis gory,
Yet 'tis wreathed araouid with glory,
And 'twill live ill song anid story,
Thoul -It it4 fdols are in t Ie lust;
For its fanite oan brightest pages,
Peiln ned 11N. a nefs and by sages,
Shall Z-) soandinng down a the ages
Fl''ti its failds thoughi now we must.
F;arl that I a1111er, suoft ly, slowly,
Treat it gently-it is holy
For it dlriaps ahove the dead.
Taoch it nit-1iufold it never,
het it droolp there fur11led forever,
F(1r- its peal'cs ihpes are dead.
