¶Liedtext

A NAMELESS GRAVE ‘A soldier of the Union mustered out,'  Is the inscription on an unknown grave  At Newport News, beside the salt-sea wave,  Nameless and dateless; sentinel or scout  Shot down in skirmish, or disastrous rout  Of battle, when the loud artillery drave  Its iron wedges through the ranks of brave  And doomed battalions, storming the redoubt.  Thou unknown hero sleeping by the sea  In thy forgotten grave! With secret shame  I feel my pulses beat, my forehead burn,  When I remember thou hast given for me  All that thou hadst, thy life, thy very name,  And I can give thee nothing in return. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow 30 November 1874
