e murderous stroke. We are tired of contest for what is our own, We are sick of a strife that could never be done; Thus our love has died out, and its altars are dark, Not Prometheus' self could rekindle the spark. O Jonathan, Jonathan, deadly the sin, Of your tigerish thirst for the blood of your kin; And shameful the spirit that gloats over wives And maidens despoiled of their honor and lives! Your palaces rise from the fruits of our toil-- Your millions are fed from the wealth of our soil; The balm of our air brings the health to your cheek, And our hearts are aglow with the welcome we speak. O brother! beware how you seek us again, Lest you brand on your forehead the signet of Cain; That blood and that crime on your conscience must sit, We may fall — we may perish — but never submit! The pathway that leads to the Pharisee's door We remember indeed, but we tread it no more-- Preferring to turn with the Publican's faith, To the path through the valley and shadow of death! Caroli

, if you're not prepared to die The death of Haman, fly, Jeff — fly! Fly, traitor, to some lonely niche, Far, far beyond the billow; Thy grave an ill-constructed ditch-- Thy sexton General Pillow. There may you turn to rottenness, By mortal unannoyed, Your ashes undisturbed, unless Your grave is known to Floyd. He'll surely trouble your repose, And come to steal your burial-clothes. Epitaph. Pause for an instant, loyal reader. Here lies Jeff, the great seceder. Above, he always lied, you know, And now the traitor lies below. His bow was furnished with two strings, He flattered crowds and fawned on kings; Repaid his country's care with evil, And prayed to God, and served the devil. The South could whip the Yankee nation, So he proposed humiliation! Their blessings were so everlasting, 'Twas just the time for prayer and fasting I The record may be searched in vain, From West-Point Benedict to Cain, To find a more atrocious knave, Unless in Caesar Borgia's grave.
