And war-steeds trample on the brave;

He died—it was in Holy Land—

Yet fell he not by Paynim hand;

He sleeps not with his sires at rest,

With trophied shield and knightly crest;

Unknown his grave to kindred eyes,

—But I can tell thee where he lies!

It was a wild and savage spot,

But once beheld—and ne’er forgot!

I see it now—that haunted scene
