Arlington Cemetery


Beneath this green and grassy field, Whence ghosts of heros past doth shield, Lie noble relics of flesh and bone, To each bequeathed a marble stone. And as you walk amongst the rows, May you learn what each one here knows. O that freedom should not be lost, All who lie here have paid the cost.
