    Song of the brave, how thrills thy tone
    As when the Organ's music rolls;
    No gold rewards, but song alone,
    The deeds of great and noble souls.
    [Ger., Hoch klingt das Lied vom braven Mann,
    Wie Orgelton und Glockenklang;
    Wer hohes Muths sich ruhmen kann
    Den lohnt nicht Gold, den lohnt Gesang.]

The brave man seeks not popular applause,
Nor, overpower'd with arms, deserts his cause;
Unsham'd, though foil'd, he does the best he can,
Force is of brutes, but honor is of man.

At the bottom of a good deal of the bravery that appears in the world there lurks a miserable cowardice. Men will face powder and steel because they cannot face public opinion.

O friends, be men; so act that none may feel
Ashamed to meet the eyes of other men.
Think each one of this children and his wife,
His home, his parents, living yet and dead.
For them, the absent ones, I supplicate,
And bid you rally here, and scorn to fly.
