Mims in Brevard County, Florida — The American South (South Atlantic)
From The Bivouac of The Dead
By Theodore O’Hara
| — | Cape Canaveral National Cemetery | — |
The soldier’s last tattoo;
No more on life’s parade shall meet
That brave and fallen few.
On Fame’s eternal camping-ground
Their silent tents are spread,
And Glory guards, with solemn round,
The bivouac of the dead.
