And every village graveyard will have its green mounds, that
shall need no storied monument to clothe them with a peculiar
consecration--graves that hold the dust of heroes--graves that
all men approach with reverent steps--graves out of whose solemn
silence shall whisper inspiring voices, telling the young from
generation to generation how great is their country's worth and
cost, and how noble and beautiful it was to die for it.
