Beyond that, danger seems past, however great in fact the toil and exposure. Without detracting in the least from the honor due the self-sacrificing soldier, — his meed of praise cannot be too widely sound- ed, — there is yet reason to believe that the real suffering, the agony of the sacri- fice is at home, where remain the mothers, the wives, and the lovers of the noble brave, — they are the ones who look on and view the strife, without the relief afforded by actual engagement. To them it app...ertains to see the face of the dead when the strife is over ; or to spell out the name of the loved and lost where no farewell sound comes from his dying lips, and no index 72 LIFE AND CHARACTER OF guides to the place of his sleeping; and the heart must bear the heavy thought, — " He is missing, evermore ! " From what has been derived from min- gling with those thus bereaved, — sorrow- ing, — my own election would be, so far as the matter of suffering is involved, to fall in the action which defends the right, rather than be doomed to stand where the desolat- ing wave should lave my feet while rolling up to view the mangled forms of my dear- est earthly friends, thus fallen.
