The Women of the Confederacy

THE SOUTHERN WOMAN’S SONG

[Confederate Scrap Book.]

Stitch, stitch, stitch.

Little needle, swiftly fly,

Brightly glitter as you go;

Every time that you pass by

Warms my heart with pity’s glow.

Dreams of comfort that will cheer,

Dreams of courage you will bring,

Through winter’s cold, the volunteer.
