And roses, red roses, to emblem the love
Which follows them, even through the dark portal.
And pansies. for thought of their welcome above.
Bring roses white -for their purpose holy,
And mid the sweet flowers which are strewn at its side,
Whether his rank was high or was lowly.
Set the Banner of Stars, for which each one died.
