THE SOLDIERS GRAVE
BY PEARL RIVERS
Tread lightly, 'tis a soldiers grave,
A lonely, mossy mound;
And yet to hearts like mine and thine
It should be holy ground.
Speak softly, let no careless laugh,
No idle, thoughtless jest,
Escape your lips where sweetly sleeps
The hero in his rest.
For him no reveille will beat
When morning beams shall come;
For him, at night, no tattoo rolls
Its thunders from the drum.
Tread lightly! for a man bequeathed,
Ere laid beneath this sod,
His ashes to his native land,
His gallant soul to God.

Meaning of Names
Robert
English, Scottish, and French (also Scandinavian): one of the many Frenchnames of Germanic origin that were introduced into Britain by theNormans. This one is composed of the nearly synonymous elements hrod fame+ berht bright, famous. It had a native Old English predecessor ofsimilar form (Hreodbeorht), which was supplanted by the Norman name. Itwas the name of two dukes of Normandy in the 11th century: the father ofWilliam the Conqueror (sometimes identified with the legendary Robert theDevil), and his eldest son. It was borne by three kings of Scotland,notably Robert the Bruce (1274–1329), who freed Scotland from Englishdomination. The altered short form Bob is very common, but Hob and Dob,which were common in the Middle Ages and gave rise to surnames, areextinct. See also Rupert. Cognates: Scottish Gaelic: Raibeart.
