Strana 130 - Sleep sweetly in your humble graves, Sleep, martyrs of a fallen cause; Though yet no marble column craves The pilgrim here to pause. In seeds of laurel in the earth The blossom of your fame is blown, And somewhere, waiting for its birth, The shaft is in the stone!

Strana 59 - The flag he loved guides no more the charging lines, But his fame, consigned to the keeping of that time, which, Happily, is not so much the tomb of virtue as its shrine, Shall, in the years to come, fire modest worth to noble ends.
Strana 135 - Then here's to our Confederacy, strong we are and brave, Like patriots of old, we'll fight our heritage to save. And rather than submit to shame, to die we would prefer, So cheer for the Bonnie Blue Flag that bears a Single Star.
