    Bless God, he went as soldiers

    BLESS God, he went as soldiers,


    His musket on his breast;
    Grant, God, he charge the bravest
    Of all the martial blest.

    Please God, might I behold him
    In epauletted white,
    I should not fear the foe then,
    I should not fear the fight.

    - Emily Dickinson
