(front)
To the Confederate Soldiers.

Some of whom sacrificed all, and all of whom sacrificed much.

(left side)
On fame's eternal camping ground their silent tents are spread, and glory guards with solemn round the bivouac of the dead.

(right side)
Their names are borne on honor's shield; Their record is with God.

(rear)
Tell it as you may,
it never can be told,
sing it as you will,
it never can be sung -
The store of the glory
of the men who wore the gray.
