I'll play the eaves-dropper. " Shakgpeare, The night comes ou, and o'er the field The moon shines bright on helm and shield ; But there are many on that plain That shall not see her light again ; She looks serene on countless bands Of mailed breasts and steel-bound hands ; And shows a thousand fiices there Of courage high, and dark despair, All mingled as the legions lie Wrapt in their dreams of victory, A lowering sound of doubt and fear Breaks sudden on the startled ear. And hands are clench'...d, and cheeks are pale, a And from bright blade and ringing mail A thousand hands, with busy toil, Clean off each ancient stain or soil ; Or spots of blood, where truth may read For every drop a guilty deed.
[103] 104 THE EVE OF BATTLE.
Survey the crowds who there await. In various mood, the shock of fate ; Who burn to meet, or strive to sliun, The dangers of to-morrow's sun. Look on the husband's anxious tears, The hero's hopes, the coward's fears, Tlie vices that e'en here are found, The follies that are hovering- round ; And learn that (treat it as you will) Our life must be a mockery still.
