The Battle of Bull-Run.

At Bull-run, when the sun was low,

Each Southern face was pale as snow;

And shrill as jackdaws, rose the crow

Of Yankees boasting rabidly!

But Bull-Run saw another sight,

When in the deepening shades of night

Towards Fairfax Court-house, streamed the flight

Of Yankees running rapidly!

Then shook the corps, with terror riven
