A Toi

To fight aloud, is very brave -
But gallanter, I know
Who charge within the bosom
The Calvary of Wo -


Who win, and nations do not see -
Who fall - and none observe -
Whose dying eyes, no Country
Regards with patriot love -


We trust, in plumed procession
For such, the Angels go -
Rank after Rank, with even feet -
And Uniforms of snow.

Emily Dickinson
