116. Eighty-five years ago: a Ballad for the Fourth of July. by A. J. H. Duganne. Oh, how the past comes over me-- How the Old Days draw nigh! Tramping along in battalia-- Marching the legions by, With the drums of the Old Time beating, And the Old Flag waving high! And down from the mountain gorges, And up from woodlands low, Mustering for Liberty's conflict-- Eighty-five years ago! Out of the streets of Lexington I see the red-coats wheel; And, back from the lines of Bunker, Where Continentals kneel And pray, with their iron musketry, I see the red-coats reel; And, reddening all the greensward, I mark the life-blood flow From the bosom of martyred Warren-- Eighty-five years ago! Hearken to Stark, of Hampshire: “Ho, comrades all!” quoth he-- “King George's Hessian hirelings On yonder plains ye see! We'll beat them, boys! or Mary Stark A widow this night shall be!” And then, like a clap of thunder, He broke upon the foe, And he won the battle of Bennington-- Eighty-five
2. the Roman Twins. by A. J. H. Duganne. 'Twas told by Roman soothsayers, What time they read the stars, That Romulus and Remus Sprang from the loins of Mars: That Romulus and Remus Were twin-born on the earth, And in the lap of a she-wolf Were suckled from their birth. By Heaven! I think this legend-- This ancient Roman myth-- For mine own time, and mine own clime, Is full of pregnant pith. Romulus stood with Remus, And plowed the Latian loam, And traced, by yellow Tiber, The nascent walls of Rome; Then laughed the dark twin, Remus, And scoffed his brother's toil, And over the bounds of Romulus He leaped upon his soil. By Heaven! I think that Remus And Romulus at bay, Of Slavery's strife and Liberty's life Were antetypes that day! The sucklings of the she-wolf Stood face to face in wrath, And Romulus swept Remus Like stubble from his path; Then crested he with temples The Seven Hills of his home, And builded there, by Tiber, The eternal walls of Rome! By Heaven! I think this leg

A sound through the nation is rolling amain, With the power and the grandeur of thunder; It beats in the bosom and throbs in the brain Of a people awaking in wonder; Oh! if you ask why the thunders rolled-- 'Tis to rouse for Union, the free and the bold-- Rouse for Union the hearts of the free and the bold! “An army with banners” moves mightily on; Every heart to its country is plighted; The stars of those banners outdazzle the sun, With the blaze of their glories united! Oh! if you ask what is here foretold-- 'Tis to range in Union the free and the bold-- Range in Union the hearts of the free and the bold! They are marching, all marching, in Liberty's cause, With the flag of their love floating o'er them; And on its bright folds they have graven the laws Of the beautiful mother who bore them; And if you ask why the flag's unrolled-- 'Tis to lead in Union the free and the bold-- Lead in Union t

85. Czar and Serf. by A. J. H. Duganne. There came out word from Muscovy To all the Christian lands-- That Kaiser Alexander Had loosed his vassals' bands; That the Czar of all the Russias, By brave and wise commands, Had riven the yoke from bondmen's necks, The shackles from their hands. Then all the wide world shouted-- Wherever Christians are-- “'Tis a noble deed this man hath done! All hail! the Russian Czar!” O'er all the land of Muscovy Was Slavery's leprous scurf-- Till Kaiser Alexander said: “Emancipate the serf!” Till the Czar of all the Russias To shapes of breathing turf Gave thrice ten million freemen's souls-- A soul for every serf. Then all the wide world shouted-- Wherever Christians are-- “'Tis a blessed deed this man hath done! God keep the Russian Czar!” I think if he of Muscovy Were ruler here, this day, And underneath rebellion's foot His bleeding country lay, With twice three hundred thousand men Behind him, fierce for fray, He would not brook that
ostly Union soldiers. The two most important prisons west of the Mississippi were Camp Ford, near Tyler, and Camp Groce, near Hempstead, Texas. The former was at first a Camp on a beautiful hill covered with trees, though a stockade was built later. Both officers and men were confined here, and there seemed to have been, during 1863 and the early part of 1864, comparatively few hardships. The prisoners built log huts around which some of them planted vines and flowers. Lieutenant-Colonel A. J. H. Duganne tells of paying two prisoners, experienced in such work, one hundred dollars in Confederate money for the construction of a hut ten by twelve feet with a stone fireplace and a clay chimney. The supply of wood was abundant, the water was excellent, bathing arrangements were ample, and the food, though confined to a few articles, was good. There was an abundance of fresh beef and corn-meal, and farmers in the neighborhood were allowed to sell any of their produce, though there

oiling plough; The rifle and the bayonet-blade For arms like yours were fitter now; And let the hands that ply the pen Quit the light task, and learn to wield The horseman's crooked brand, and rein The charger on the battle-field. Thereafter the passion of events is recorded in the poems of the war, North and South. Bayard Taylor's Through Baltimore cried out against the opposition offered by Southern sympathizers to the passage through Baltimore streets of the Sixth Massachusetts. A. J. H. Duganne, in his impetuous Bethel, sang of the heroism but not the blunders of that battle, the chief victim of which, Theodore Winthrop, See also Book III, Chap. XI. was the subject of Thomas William Parsons's lofty Dirge for one who fell in battle. Bull Run, theme of many exultant Southern ballads and satires, See also Book III, Chap.
