Clinton Scollard Papers

Their place is now With those who wear, green-set about the brow, The deathless immortelles, — The heroes torn and scarred Whose blood made red the barren ocean dells, Fighting with him the gallant Ranger bore, Daring to do what none had dared before, To wave the New World banner, freedom-starred, At England's very door! Yea, with such noble ones their names shall stand As those who heard the dying Lawrence speak His burning words upon the Chesapeake, And grappled in the hopeless hand-to-hand; With those who fell on Erie and Champlain Beneath the pouring, pitiless battle-rain: With such as these, our lost men of the Maine!

What though they faced no storm of iron hail That freedom and the right might still prevail? The path of duty it was theirs to tread To death's dark vale through ways of travail led, And they are ours — our dead! If it be true that each loss holds a gain, It must be ours through saddened eyes to see From out this tragic holocaust of pain The whole land bound in closer amity! Rate this poem:.
