Ballad of Vicksburgh. Two years the tide of war had rolled In restless fury on-- Hearts growing prematurely old In grief for loved ones gone! Two years the burdened land had groaned Beneath the martial train; With bitter, scalding tears bemoaned Its argosy of pain!

All avenues of flight they guard With strong and jealous care, Cut off supplies and press them hard With burdens hard to bear. They boldly make the fierce assault, The moated walls to scale, Nor is it yet the her
