    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.

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.]

divine poet (to chronicle their deeds).
[Lat., Vixere fortes ante Agamemnona
Multi; sed omnes illacrimabiles
Urguentur ignotique sacro.]
