“Then one will say, He is not dead, maybe,
Who was mortalitys unshaken lover
Who loved the spring upon the Tennessee,
The hushed fall and, again, the coming clover.
None will recall, not knowing, the twisted roads
Where the mind wanders till the heart corrodes.”

Where the River flows, with foreign flotations.
There I was told: we have too many churches,
And too few chop-houses.”

Half a league onward,
All in the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.
Forward the Light Brigade!”
