Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRST UVWMX

Over his millions Death has lawful powerA
But over thee brave D'Ossoli none noneB
After a longer struggle in a fightC
Worthy of Italy to youth restor'dD
Thou far from home art sunk beneath the surgeE
Of the Atlantic on its shore in reachF
Of help in trust of refuge sunk with allG
Precious on earth to thee a child a wifeH
Proud as thou wert of her AmericaI
Is prouder showing to her sons how highJ
Swells woman's courage in a virtuous breastK
She would not leave behind her those she lov'dL
Such solitary safety might becomeM
Others not her not her who stood besideN
The pallet of the wounded when the worstO
Of France and Perfidy assail'd the wallsP
Of unsuspicious Rome Rest glorious soulQ
Renown'd for strength of genius MargaretR
Rest with the twain too dear My words are fewS
And shortly none will hear my failing voiceT
But the same language with more full appealU
Shall hail thee Many are the sons of songV
Whom thou hast heard upon thy native plainsW
Worthy to sing of thee the hour is comeM
Take we our seats and let the dirge beginX
