RioFravo! RioRrivo!
5aw men ever such a sight,
Since the field of Roncejval'ei,
Scaled the fate ol many a knight '
Dark is Talo Alto's a'ory,
Sad Reaca Palmn'a route,
On those fatal fields so uory
Many a gallant life went out.
There our best nnd bravest lances,
Shivered 'eainst the Northern steel.
Left the valiant hearta that couched lh-ni,
"Neath the Northern charger's lice!.
Rio Rravo ! Rio Rravo!
Minstrel ne'er knew such a fi'ht,
Since the field of Roncesvallrs
Sealed the fate of many a knight.
Rio Bravo, fatal tiver,
Saw ye not while red with gore,
Torrejoho all headless quiver,
A ghastly 1 1 tin Ic upon thy shore ?
Heard ye aot the wounded coursers
Sbrirking on your ttampled banks,
As the Northerned winged artillery
Thundered on our shattered ranks '
There Arista, best and bravest,
There Raunena, tried and true,
On the fatal field thou Invest,
Nobly did all men t otild do.
Vainly there those heroes rally,
Castile on Montexutna's shore,
"Rio Rravo" "Ronresvalles,"
Ye are names blent evermore.
Weepest thoa, lorn lady Iner,
For thy Tbver 'mid the slain,
Grave La Vega's ti enchant falchion
Cleft his slayer to the brain.
Rrave La Vea who all lonely,
l!y a bust of foes beset,
Yielded up his sabre only
When his equal there he met.
Other championa not less noted.
Sleep beneath that sullen wave ;
Rio Piavo, thou hast floated
Ail army to an ocean grave.
On they earn, those Noithern horsemen.
On like eagles toward the sun
Fallowed then the Northern bayonet,
And the field Mas lost and won.
O '. for Orlando's boin to islly
His Paladins on that t-ad shore,

when Walker made the desperate attempt to J

He was removed from the field, and has since j
