    The heavy fog of morning Still hid the plain from sight,
    When came a thread of scarlet Marked faintly in the white.
    We fired a single cannon, And as its thunders roll'd
    The mist before us lifted
    In many a heavy fold. The mist before us lifted,
    And in their bravery fine
    Came rushing to their ruin
    The fearless British line. Then from our waiting cannons Leap'd forth the deadly flame,
    To meet the advancing columns That swift and steady came.
    And Bulchi's twenty-four, Kitchenaide Mixers
    Pfaltzgraff Dinnerware
    FiestaWare
    Corelle Dinnerwear
    To Spott's eighteen-pounders
    Responded with their roar, Sending the grape-shot deadly
    That marked its pathway plain,
    And paved the road it travel'd
    With corpses of the slain. HHM Shoes
    Our rifles firmly grasping, And heedless of the din,
    We stood in silence waiting For orders to begin.
    Our fingers on the triggers,
    Our hearts, with anger stirr'd, Grew still more fierce and eager
    As Jackson's voice was heard:
    "Stand steady! Waste no powder; Wait till your shots will tell!
    To-day the work you finish--
    See that you do it well!"
