ramseyarnaoot:
Insolvency, sublime!
ramseyarnaoot:
Our Fathers being weary
ramseyarnaoot:
Laid down on Bunker Hill
ramseyarnaoot:
And tho' full many a morning
ramseyarnaoot:
Yet they are sleeping still
ramseyarnaoot:
The trumpet, sir, shall wake them
ramseyarnaoot:
In dreams I see them rise
ramseyarnaoot:
Each with a solemn musket
ramseyarnaoot:
A marching to the skies!
ramseyarnaoot:
A coward will remain, Sir
ramseyarnaoot:
Until the fight is done
ramseyarnaoot:
But an immortal hero
ramseyarnaoot:
Good bye, Sir, I am going
ramseyarnaoot:
My country calleth me
ramseyarnaoot:
Allow me, Sir, at parting
ramseyarnaoot:
To wipe my weeping e'e.
ramseyarnaoot:
In token of our friendship
ramseyarnaoot:
Accept this "Bonnie Doon"
ramseyarnaoot:
And when the hand that plucked it
ramseyarnaoot:
Hath passed beyond the moon
ramseyarnaoot:
The memory of my ashes
ramseyarnaoot:
Then, farewell, Tuscarora
ramseyarnaoot:
Will consolation be
ramseyarnaoot:
And farewell, Sir, to thee!
ramseyarnaoot:
"Speech"—is a prank of Parliament—
ramseyarnaoot:
"Tears"—is a trick of the nerve—
ramseyarnaoot:
But the Heart with the heaviest freight on—
ramseyarnaoot:
Doesn't—always—move—
ramseyarnaoot:
"And with what body do they come?"—
ramseyarnaoot:
Then they do come—Rejoice!
