These in the robings of glory,
Those in the gloom of defeat;
All with the battle-blood gory,
In the dusk of meet;
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day;
Under the laurel, the Blue;
Under the willow, the Gray.
Those in the gloom of defeat;
All with the battle-blood gory,
In the dusk of meet;
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day;
Under the laurel, the Blue;
Under the willow, the Gray.
