Bivouac of the Dead*
by: Theodore O'Hara
Rest on embalmed and sainted dead! Dear as the blood ye gave;
No impious footstep here shall tread the herbage of your grave;
Nor shall your glory be forgot while Fame her records keeps,
For honor points the hallowed spot where valor proudly sleeps.
"Bivouac of the Dead", is displayed at national cemeteries. Verses shall appear on many of these pages.
