The Bivouac of the Dead. By Theodore O'Hara, 1847

The muffled drum's sad roll has beat ~~~~~ The soldier's last tattoo'
No more on life's parade shall meet ~~~~~That brave and fallen few;
On Fame's eternal camping ground ~~~~~ Their silent tents are spread;
But Glory guards with solemn round ~~~~~ The bivouac of the dead.
