    In brighter light and softer airs, a beauteous sisterhood?

    Pure was thy life; its bloody close
    Hath placed thee with the sons of light,
    Among the noble host of those
    Who perished in the cause of Right.

    Once this soft turf, this rivulet’s sands,
    Were trampled by a hurrying crowd,
