    "From the silence of sorrowful hours

    The desolate mourners go,

    Lovingly laden with flowers

    Alike for the friend and the foe;

    Under the sod and the dew,

    Waiting the judgement-day;

    Under the roses, the Blue,

    Under the lilies, the Gray.



    No more shall the war cry sever,

    Or the winding rivers be red;

    They banish our anger forever

    When they laurel the graves of our dead!

    Under the sod and the dew,

    Waiting the judgment-day,

    Love and tears for the Blue,

    Tears and love for the Gray."



    (Francis Miles Finch)
