LINCOLN.
Fred Lewis Pattee
When falls a Man, his work heaped round
him high,
His tools as last he dropped them from his
hand,
His block half hewn, the triumph that he
Planned
A dream that he alone could glorify,
From out our souls there leaps the sudden cry,
Of half self pity born, as weak we stand
Above the dead so pitiful yet grand :
"This is not death ; his work shall never die."
Shall never die ! Ah lightly words are spent,
And lofty soars the tribute o'er the bier,
And full and tear compelling rings the
We carve upon the new-hewn monument ;
But will our sons behold it with a ear ?
And thus upon that distant April day,
When in a breath the blameless one was
low,
Wheit hushed and awed alike were friend
and foe, -
And for an hour the conflict died away,
There sudden rose above the piteous clay
A thousand voices crying in their woe :
"He was dtvine,•till now we did not know ;
He is not dead ; his work shall not decay "
And was it true, that cry above the bier ?
Ah true indeed. .The sons now guide the
plow ;
To us the war is but the evening tale
Of things afar ; but still we drop the tear
At his great name,and crown his lofty brow.
The Man is real ; the rest grows vague
