Still on McDowell's farthest left, The roar of cannon strikes one deaf, Where furious Abe and Aery Jeff Contend for death or victory.
The panic thickens—off, ye brave ! Throw down your arms! your bacon save I Waive Washington, all scruples waive, And fly, with all your chivalry ! |

HURRAH! By a Mississippi an.—Mobile Register.
Hurrah ! for the Southern Confederate State,
With her banner of white, red, and blue ; Hurrah ! for her daughters, the fairest on earth,
And her sons, ever loyal and true ! Hurrah ! and hurrah ! for her brave volunteers,
Enlisted for freedom or death; Hurrah! for Jeff. Davis, commander-in-chief,
And three cheers for the Palmetto wreath ! Hurrah ! for each heart that is right in the cause;
That cause we'll protect with our lives ; Hurrah ! for the first one who dies on the field,
And hurrah! for each one who survives ! Hurrah ! for the South—shout hurrah ! and hurrah!
O'er her soil shall no tyrant have sway, In peace or in war we will ever be found
" Invincible," now and for aye. |
