They call his title private—
He reached r.o higher grade,
But waited for his orders
And died when he obeyed.
No pen may write his story,
No chisel carve his name.
No monument rise o’er him.
No multitude acclaim.

For he was but a private.
And served another's fame,
And, dying, gave his country
A never-dying name.
He gave to order’s progress
The life 'twas his to give,
And in his country’s annals.
Though nameless, he shall live.
