"But what need of music? My heart beats time— Vive la France!"

His regiment comes. Oh, then where is he?
"There is dust in my eyes, for I cannot see,—
Is that my Michel to the right of thee,

Soldier of France?"

Then out of the ranks a comrade fell,"Yesterday-'t was a splinter of shell

And he whispered thy name, did thy poor Michel, Dying for France.”

The tread of the troops on the pavement throbbed
Like a woman's heart of its last joy robbed,
As she lifted her boy to the flag, and sobbed:
"Vive la France!"
