Confederate Camp-Fire Songs
and
Confederate Camp-Fire Songs
The neighing troop, the flashing blade,
The bugle's stirring blast,
The charge, the dreadful cannonade,
The din and shout are past;
No war's wild note, no glory's peal,
Shall thrill with fierce delight,
Those breasts that nevermore may feel
The rapture of the fight.
The bugle's stirring blast,
The charge, the dreadful cannonade,
The din and shout are past;
No war's wild note, no glory's peal,
Shall thrill with fierce delight,
Those breasts that nevermore may feel
The rapture of the fight.
Theodore O'Hara.
