Ye Soulhrons arouse, and do battle, nor yield To the black northern hordes now infesting your\Li borders, Not to meet a brave foe on a fair open field, But coward assassins and midnight marauders, Let us rise in our might, Put the dastards to flight, Or perish like Jackmn defending our light, And shew them no black hearted traitors shall dare Dispute with our Davis brave Washington's chairY, From insulting oppression that chafed us full more' Kach sovereign state claiua t'le right of seceding, Their murderous footsteps are marked in our gore. On their hearth stones Missourri's fair daughters lie bleeding. And their last feint death cries Up to heaven aiise, 'Gainst each fratricide craven as onward he flies, And their cowardly chieftain no lonpor shall dare,j Usurp from our Davis the Tresidents chair. See! they come! let our banner float out on the breeze, Carolinians, Georgians thon whom none are bolder Tennessee and Kentucky's keen marksmen are these. Hark! the rifle's sharp click aa it leaps to th shoulder. And the oath they renew, Bings through heaven's clear blue, That shoulder to shoulder brave loyal and true, They'll phow them no dastardly recreant shall dare Deprive our bold Davis of Washmgton's chair.
