elman Glory and honor and fame and everlasting laudation For our captains who loved not war, but fought for the life of the nation; Who knew that, in all the land, one slave meant strife, not peace: Who fought for freedom, not glory; made war that war might cease. Glory and honor and fame; the beating of muffled drums: The wailing funeral dirge, as the flag-draped coffin comes: Fame and honor and glory; and joy for a noble soul, For a full and splendid life, and laurelled rest at the goal. Glory and honor and fame: the pomp that a soldier prizes: The league-long waving line as the marching falls and rises: Rumbling of caissons and guns: the clatter of horses' feet. And a million awe-struck faces far down the waiting street. But better than martial woe. and the pageant of civic sorrow; Better than praise of to-day. or the statue we build to-morrow: Better than honor and glory, and history's iron pen. Was the thought of duty done and the love of his fellow-men. —Richard Watson Guilder. The 194 4 Echoes 17
