64. the young patriot.

One more buried
     Beneath the sod
One more standing
     Before his God.

Lay him low, lay him low,
     Ere the morning break;
Sorrow not, sorrow not,
     He minds not heart-ache.

[53] He is one, he is one
     Of that noble band
Who have fought, who have died,
     For their fatherland.

He needs no tears;
     An angel now,
A saintly crown
     Upon his brow.

We should not weep
     That he is gone;
With us 'tis night,
     With him 'tis morn.
