To rest, old trees, with you.
Folk songs
By Ryan, Abram Joseph
Old trees, old trees! keep watch and ward
Over each grass-grown bed;
'Tis a glory, old trees, to stand as guard
Over the Southern dead;
Old trees, old trees! we shall pass away
Like the leaves you yearly shed,
But ye, lone sentinels, still must stay,
Old trees, to guard "our dead".
Artist: Ryan, Abram Joseph
Year: 1850
