Excerpt from My Three Loves: The Poems of Beverley Dandridge Tucker In Camp and Field Robert E. Lee Salutamus, O Leader, long lost, And passed from our vision and ken, Tho' thine arms on thy bosom be crossed, We call us thy men. And we list for the word of command That leaped from the lips that are mute. Tho' it come not, yet loyal, we stand And give thee salute. Thou art passed, Commander, where ne'er Is heed of the praise and the blame, Yet resistless outrings the loud cheer At sound of thy name. Ah, the face and the form we knew well Are lost in the chasm of years! But our love has a pow'r to dispel The mist of our tears. And thy glory shall lighten through time The vistas of duty, and then - We shall know that our hero sublime Still leadeth his men.
