Thicker, faster, round them, o'er them falls the iron rain; Broken lines are closed together, ranks made whole again. Nine times see their standard falling--nine times see it wave, As stalwart arm has raised it where its bearer finds his grave. One brigade against an army!

For history's page no nobler names shall bear recorded ever, Than those of Hanson and his men who fell beside Stone river.

Kentucky's sons I Your dead lists bear Of noble worth, full many a name Whose honor is Kentucky's care, Whose memories highest place may claim. Helm, Hanson, Breckenridge — entwines A people's love these names among; As sacred places, be their shrines, In words that ring their deeds be sung. VII. Nor yet to living less.
