“On her left breast
A mole cinque-spotted, like the crimson drops
I’ th’ bottom of a cowslip.”

“No more shall the war cry sever,
Or the winding rivers be red:
They banish our anger forever
When they laurel the graves of our dead!
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the Judgment Day:—
Love and tears for the Blue;
Tears and love for the Gray.”
