To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
dear Potomac! at thy name what memories throng!
Deeds of heroism blazoned in a nation's art and song.
Onward sweeps the steadv column to the sound of fife and drum ; Solid phalanx, proud battalion; see the sun -browned veterans come.
Forward, to the touch of elbow, as of old in long review : Missing comrades take their places in the ranks that wear the blue.
"On to Richmond!" "On to Richmond!" swells the old familiar cry. "On this line" — you know the context — comes the soldier's brief reply.
...Southward now, with ranks concentring, reads the order of the day, "Wilderness and Spottsylvania marking halts along the way, Where the trees are mowed with bullets — brothers battling hand to hand — Blue and gray, with kindred courage worthy of one fatherland ; Both alike in silent trenches guarding now the peaceful scene. Waiting till the morn's reveille wakes the camps of waving green. Southward still across N^orth Anna, thirty miles from Rapidan ; Southward, by the left flank marching, gallant Hancock in the van.
