The recollection o! their example not only imparts

to our bos m a tenderness of (eelit approximating to the sublime, but also enkindles in our hearts the rinmhliiu Ihes of the spirit of emulation To mourn the death of ?u'lt men. is to indulge, a god li ;r sorrow ; to weep beside their P'-a.v's. is not unmanly.

It rests, embalmed with sweets, that shed A fragrance on the soldier's grave.
