Of the great army of the dead, The trenches cold and damp, The starved and frozen camp,--The wounded from the battle-plain, In dreary hospitals of pain, The cheerless corridors, The cold and stony floors.

Her shadow, as it falls. Upon the darkening walls. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Something attempted, something done, Has earned a nights repose. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
