Formatted Contents Note:
The war scene--The work of death--Sadly silent near the dead--They had heard the news of the battle--To think that you died alone--Vigil strange--They bear him gently home--Not even the House of God was spared--Home, home again!---The Holy War--God of the true-hearted--But God he keeps the middle way--To the plain where the blessed city lies--In glory sleep!--Lincoln is dead!--Purchased with our Jackson's blood--Thy pale and perished flowers---Social commentary--Rightful order into ruin hurled--The glowing wonders of secession---Slavey--Since mercy fell by tyranny--Gaunt treason--On none dependent, sovereign, free--This broad domain that freedom craves--The thirsty lash, with sharp, steel-pointed thong--The festal march of iron--Most glorious Southern land--Magical mesh, to entangle a world--The book of books we commonly quote-All scripture is useful in its place--Your father, boy, was eager---Stories of the war--She gave a shriek and cried aloud--Their earthly paths no more shall sever.
