CLASSIC WAR POEMS
Selected by J. Howard Wert
No. 37. THE MOONLIGHT MARCH
BY BISHOP REGINOLD HEBER
In this selection, f will turn for a moment from some of the stern and
awful battle portrajtures which this series lias presented, to give, a little gem
from the great missionary, Bishop Heber, the author of some of the sublimest
hymns of our language.
Reginald Heber, the celebrated bishop of Calcutta, was born in Cheshire,
England, April 21, 1783. and died in Madras, April 1826. Kvincing, even
in childhood, a remarkable fondness for learning, he lost none of his enthusiasm,
in this direction, by the advance of life. His career at Oxford, where he took
his degree, was singularly brilliant; being distinguished, among other things, by
his famous prize poem entitled "Palestine." As a poet, he is most remarkable
for those qualities that were so conspicuous in his character, as a man, namely,
gentleness, benevolence, devotional feeling, and the vigor that comes of Chris
tian zeal.
I see thorn on their winding way,
About their ranks the moonbeams play;
Their lofty deeds and daring high
Blend with the notes' of victory.
And waving arms, and banners bright,
Are glancing in the mellow light:
They're lost —and gone, the moon is
past,
The wood's dark shade is o'er them
fast;
And ainter, fainter, fainter still.
The march is rising o'er the hill.
ITIME LIMIT FOR EITEL AT

interest was renewed here to-day in
any move that Commander Thierichcus,
of the vessel, might make.
He must soon either renew his mer
chant raiding expedition in the face ot
warships of the allied nations which
are waiting off t'he Virginia capes to
capture her, or intern his ship until the
end of the European war. The Prinz
Eitel was reported still at her dock at
.Newport News early to-day with smoke
pouring from both her funnels.
Philadelphia, March 29. —The bat
tleship Alabama, which was given hurry
orders Saturday night to sail to Hamp
ton Roads to enforce American neutral
ity, left the Philadelphia navy yard at
9 a. m., to-day. The battleship is well
stocked with provisions and has Aboard
a large supply of ammunition and coal.
The AJa'bama was in reserve wthen
the order came and bad on board only
a skeleton crew. This necessitated the
drafting of men from the 'battleships
Kentucky, Kearsarge, Illinois, Missouri,
• Ohio and Wisconsin.
The navy yard made a record in get
ting t'he Alabama away. When the or
der came Saturday night many of the
officers and enlisted men were on shore
leave. The Philadelphia police assisted
in notifying those off duty ami in get

Again, again, the pealing drum,
'file clashing horn—they come, tliey
come!
Through rocky pass, o'er wooded steep
In long and glittering files they sweep.
And nearer, nearer, yet more near,
Their softened chorus meets the ear;
Forth, forth, and meet them on their
way!
The trampling hoofs brook 110 delay.
With thrilling fife and pealing drum.
And clashing horn, they come, tliey
come!
