THE BURIAL OF SIR JOHN MOORE AT CORUNNA. “The Burial of Sir John Moore” was one of my reading lessons when I was a child. A distinguished teach er says: “It has become a part of popular education, as has also 4 The Eve of Waterloo/ and ‘The Death of Napoleon.’ They are all poems of great rythmical swing, intense and graphic.” (1791-1823). Not a drum was heard, not a funeral note, As his corpse to the rampart we hurried; Not a soldier discharged his farewell shot O’er the grave where our hero we buried. We buried him darkly at dead of night, The sods with our bayonets turn ing; By the struggling moonbeam’s misty light, And the lantern dimly burning. No useless coffin enclosed his breast, Not in sheet not in shroud we wound him; But he lay like a warrior taking his rest, With his martial cloak around him. Few and short were the prayers we said, And we spoke not a word of sor row; But we steadfastly gazed on the face that was dead, And we bitterly thought of the morrow. We thought, as we hollow’d his nar row bed, And smoothed down his lonely pil low, That the foe and the stranger would tread o’er his head, And we far away on the billow! I Lightly they’ll talk of the spirit that’s gone, And o’er his cold ashes upbraid him— But little he’ll reck, if they let him sleep on In the grave where a Briton has laid him. But half of our heavy task was done When the clock struck the hour for retiring; y And we heard the distant and ran dom gun That the foe was sullenly firing. Slowly we sadly laid him down, From the field of his fame fresh and gory; We carved not a line, and we raised not a stone— But we left him alone with his glory. —C. WOLFE. R R R Mr. Rockefeller is reported to have said that a clear conscience is the best thing a man can have in this world. We all place a high value on what w© yearn for.

We will read it together in the gloaming, and when the gather ing dusk doth blur the page, we’ll sit with hearts too full for speech and think it over.”—Dorothy Wordsworth to Coleridge.
