One of the workcrs of tlic vorld I.ivini toiled and toiling'died; tSut others worked an.l the worli n-en m Aud was not changed when lic wns gone, A stronsr arm stricken, a wild sail furled; , And only ft few men dghed. One of the héroes of the w.orlrt Fought to conquer, then fought to fail, And feil down elain in his blooa-stained mail, And over hi9 form thcy slcpt ; llis cause was lost and his banner furled; And only a woman wept. One of the siugers among mankind Sang hcaling songs trom an o'erwrought lieart, Bnt ere men Hstened the grass and wind Were wasting the rest unsung like a wave; And now of his lame that will ne'erdepart I!e has never heard in llis grave.
