Dedicated to Allestree’s fallen heroes. Staunch heroes were these, o’er whom sad hearts are weeping, Safe bides their fame in all men’s love and praise, Sacred the mounds in which their dust is sleeping, And sweet the memories that surround past days, We falter on, now hoping, now despairing, And hour-by-hour drag out life’s little span, But they have passed in one great deed of daring- They fought for freedom and they died for man.
