Sleep noble warrior, sweetly sleep
The tomb is now thy bed.
Cold is its bosom. thou dost rest
In sacred silence with the dead.
We tell thy doom with many a sigh.
How rose thy morning sun,
How quickly to alas! it set.
Warrior thy march is done.
No mothers loving hand he felt.
No sister near to cheer:
Alone he died, our Country's pride.
A Union Volunteer.
