    Up from the South at break of day,
    Bringing to Winchester fresh dismay,
    The affrighted air with a shudder bore,

    Telling the battle was on once more,
    And Sheridan twenty miles away.

    I just come and talk to the plants, really—very important to talk to them, they respond I find.
