Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Trials and Triumphs: The Record of the Fifty-Fifth Ohio Volunteer Infantry The leaves that green to summer branches clung, Lit by the torch of autumn, flare and burn In radiance more than summer´s; then - they fall, And leave the branches lone and tenantless. The torch of Time with autumn splendor lights Your summer memories, who here have told Of battle-front and camp-fire comradery. Viewed through the mist of years, you see your past Aglow like autumn woods through autumn haze - The glamour and the glory more than tune´s. Too soon - O wearers of the sacred blue - The frost that falls shall bare those golden boughs; But as one lays away the autumn leaves Between the pages of his book, so, here, Forever safe from storms that dull and fade; Forever safe from snow´s oblivion; Forever to your children´s children´s eyes As bright and glory-hued as to your own, These martial memories of your youth are kept.
