Eagle with crest of red and gold,
These men were born to drill and die.
Point for them the virtue of slaughter,
Make plain to them the excellence of killing
And a field where a thousand corpses lie.”

Their flag to April’s breeze unfurled,
Here once the embattled farmers stood
And fired the shot heard round the world.”
