In rich Virginian woods	A
The scarlet creeper reddens over graves	B
Among the solemn trees enlooped with vines	C
Heroic spirits haunt the solitudes	C
The noble souls of half a million braves	C
Amid the murmurous pines	C
Ah who is left behind	D
Earnest and eloquent sincere and strong	E
To consecrate their memories with words	C
Not all unmeet with fitting dirge and song	E
To chant a requiem purer than the wind	D
And sweeter than the birds	C
Here though all seems at peace	C
The placid measureless sky serenely fair	F
The laughter of the breeze among the leaves	C
The bars of sunlight slanting through the trees	C
The reckless wild flowers blooming everywhere	F
The grasses' delicate sheaves	C
Nathless each breeze that blows	C
Each tree that trembles to its leafy head	G
With nervous life revives within our mind	D
Tender as flowers of May the thoughts of those	C
Who lie beneath the living beauty dead	G
Beneath the sunshine blind	D
For brave dead soldiers these	C
Blessings and tears of aching thankfulness	C
Soft flowers for the graves in wreaths enwove	H
The odorous lilac of dear memories	C
The heroic blossoms of the wilderness	C
And the rich rose of love	H
But who has sung their praise	C
Not less illustrious who are living yet	I
Armies of heroes satisfied to pass	C
Calmly serenely from the whole world's gaze	C
And cheerfully accept without regret	I
Their old life as it was	C
With all its petty pain	J
Its irritating littleness and care	F
They who have scaled the mountain with content	K
Sublime descend to live upon the plain	J
Steadfast as though they breathed the mountain air	F
Still wheresoe'er they went	K
They who were brave to act	L
And rich enough their action to forget	I
Who having filled their day with chivalry	M
Withdraw and keep their simpleness intact	L
And all unconscious add more lustre yet	I
Unto their victory	M
On the broad Western plains	C
Their patriarchal life they live anew	N
Hunters as mighty as the men of old	O
Or harvesting the plenteous yellow grains	C
Gathering ripe vintage of dusk bunches blue	N
Or working mines of gold	O
Or toiling in the town	P
Armed against hindrance weariness defeat	Q
With dauntless purpose not to serve or yield	R
And calm defiant they struggle on	S
As sturdy and as valiant in the street	Q
As in the camp and field	R
And those condemned to live	H
Maimed helpless lingering still through suffering years	C
May they not envy now the restful sleep	T
Of the dear fellow martyrs they survive	H
Not o'er the dead but over these your tears	C
O brothers ye may weep	T
New England fields I see	M
The lovely cultured landscape waving grain	J
Wide haughty rivers and pale English skies	C
And lo a farmer ploughing busily	M
Who lifts a swart face looks upon the plain	J
I see in his frank eyes	C
The hero's soul appear	U
Thus in the common fields and streets they stand	V
The light that on the past and distant gleams	C
They cast upon the present and the near	U
With antique virtues from some mystic land	V
Of knightly deeds and dreams	C
