EASTERN CLACKAMAS NEWS Page Two UPPER EAGLE CREEK Farewell, dear fath^rlaml, clime of the nun curt' hh '<1, lVarl of the Orient scan, our Kden lost; Gladly now 1 go to give thee this faded life'« bent. And were It brighter, fresher or more blest Still would I give It thee, nor count the coat. Let the sun draw Its vapors up to the Hky, And heavenward In purity hear my tardy protest; X»et some kind soul o’ er my untimely fate cry. And In the still evening a prayer be lifted on high. From thee, O my country, that In God I may rest. On the field of battle, 'midst the frenzy of fight. Others have given their lives without doubt or heed; The place matters not— cypress or laurel or lily white, Scaffold or open plain, combat or martyr dom's plight, 'Tin ever the same, to nerve our home and country’s need. , Pray for all those that hapless have died, For all who have suffered the unmeasur’d pain; For our mothers that bitterly their woes have cried, For widows and orphans, for captives by torture tried; And then for thyself that redemption thou may'st gain. And I die Just when I sec the dawn break Through the gloom of night, to herald the day And If color Is lacking my blood thou shalt take, Four’ d out at need for thy dear sake. To dye with Me crimson thy waking ray My dreams, when life first opened to me. My dreams, when the hopes of youth heat high. Were to see thy love I face. O gem of Ihe Orient sea. From gloom arid grief, from care and sorrow free; K’ o blush on thy brow, no tear In thine eye . Preuni of my life, my living and burning d e s ir e , All hall' cries the soul that is now to take n ig h t ; All hall! V ml sweet It Is for thee to expire! To die for thy oako that thou may'st aspire; And lie n In thy bosom eternity’s long night If over my grave some day thou seest grow In the grassy sod. a humble (lower, {•raw it to thy lips and kiss my soul no. While I may feel on my brow In the cold toiuli I flow The touch of thy tenderness, thy breath's warm flower, l.el the moon beam over me soft and serene, l ¿ml the dawn shed over me Its radiant flashes. Let the wind with sad lament over me keen; And If on my cross a bird should he seen, I.ot It thrill there Its hymn of peuce to my ashes. when the dark night wraps the graveyard around, With only the dead In their vigil to see; Break not my repose or the mystery profound, And perchance thou may'st hear a sad hymn resound; ’TIs 1, o my country, raising a song unto t h< e When even my grave Is remembered no U tOI e IJnmark’d by never a cross or a stone; Let the plow sweep through It, the spade turn It o’er, That my ashes may carpet th y'ea rth ly floor, Before Into nothingness at last they are flown. Then will oblivion bring me no care, As o\er thy \ales and plains I sweep. Throbbing and cleansed In thy space and air. W ith color and light, with song and lament I fare. Evsr repeating the faith that I keep. My fatherland adored, that sadness to my sorrow lends, Beloved Klltpinns, hear now my last goodbye. I give thee all: parents and kindred and friends; For I go where no slave before tho oppressor bends. Where faith can never kill, and God reigns e'er on high. 4 Farewell, father and mother atul brothers dear friends of the fireside! Thankful ye should be for me that I re»~* at the end of the long day. Farewell, sweet, from the stranger's lano. my Joy and my comrade! Farewell, dear ones, farewell! To die Is to rest from our labors!
