Books The Revolutionary War by John Malam The American Revolution by Joaquin Carr

Poem Lines written by a Revolutionary Soldier. And Independence made secure, On taking a retrospective view of my sufferings while in the Revolutionary army, in which I served For which we did those toils endure, three years and a half, in which time I suffered with hunger, cold, and want of clothing. ON the cold earth I oft have lain, Oppress'd with hunger toil and pain, While storms and tempests roar'd around, And frost and snow had cloth'd the ground The British troops, did us assail, In storms of snow, and rattling hail, All this with patience long we bore, Until that sanguine war was o'er, bled, the skies, Generations yet to come, When on the sanguine fields you tread, And while you all in Union blend, Shall find a lasting peaceful home. Nor spurn us if of you we crave, It will from war your shores defend— Look back and see what we have done, Retired for to return no more, — Some aid while tot'ring o'er the grave. Daily improvements here are made Extol the victories we have won, Fair freedom now her laurels spread Our fleeting days will shortly end, For agriculture and for trade, And when we all in dust shall sleep, O'er hostile fields where warriors bled; Then with our native dust we blend, No more we hear the din of war, Death soon will close our languid eyes, Nor thund'ring cannon from a far, And all our cares beneath the skies: Here peace spreads o'er our fertile plains, Columbia's sons who us survive, No tyrants shake their galling chains, And in this land of freedom live, Our ships safe o'er the ocean glide, Revere that Providential hand, Our hostile foes then left our shore, And waft in wealth with ev'ry tide, My friends remember us who That long has blest your happy land— Your Constitution ever prize, Your tow'ring fame will reach Here tow'ring manufactures rise Where'er you turn your wand'ring eyes; Your treasuries now with gold o'erflow, Riches abound where'er you go, No hostile banners you alarm, You sit at home free from all harm— Long may your happy land be blest, And you enjoy both peace and rest; To our memories will long vigils keep, And o'er our heads will trophies raise, With lasting songs of joy and praise. And now my friends a long adieu, Our fleeting days are short and few, We soon must leave this trying shore. And land where time shall be no more.
