Not illustrated. 1866 edition. Excerpt: ...If woman's strength sufficed to wield the sword--Kentucky never would have bowed so low To do obeisance to a dastard foe! Look at Virginia, your own mother State, Learn from her sons how to be truly great! Her Ashby, Stuart, Jackson, Longstreet, Lee, Her proud array of princely chivalry! Have they no power to raise your slumbering sense And make you long for virtue's recompense? Why not resist the brutal tyrant-stroke? Why bow your necks so tamely to his yoke? Have you lost power to feel the sting of shame F Do you count honor nothing but a name? Has fame no guerdon--victory no wreath--That you would snatch e'en from the jaws of death?

In Memoriam. Oh! weep; our gallant chief's among the dead! Cold lies the sod above his noble head, Heavy the dull reluctant earth is pressed Upon our hero's gentle, faithful breast. Virginia mourns this well-beloved one, Her tried, and true, and patriotic son, Him, numbered now among the gallant dead, Him, round whose name a glorious light is shed, A light to brighten through all coming time, As men shall read his character sublime.
