May 1st, 1861 AD (search for this): chapter 547
e the cannon's fearful boom, And shot and shell from o'er the waves, May plough the rose's bed for graves. And we, whose dear ones cluster there, We mothers, who have let them go-- Our all, perhaps — how shall we bear That which another week may show? The love which made our lives all gone, Our hearts left desolate and lone! Country!--what to me that name, Should I in vain demand my son? Glory!--what a nation's fame? Home!--home without thee, I have none. Ah, stay — this Southern land not mine? The land that e'en in death is thine! A country's laurel wreath for thee, A hero's grave--my own! my own! And neither land nor home for me, Because a mother's hope is gone? Traitor I am! God's laws command, That, next to Heaven, our native land! And I will not retract — ah, no!-- What, in my pride of home, I said, That “I would give my son to go Where'er our hero Ruler led!” The mother's heart may burst, but still Make it, O God, to know Thy will! New Orleans, May 1, 1861. --N.
