Rufus Dawes Quotes

• For a mile up and down the open fields before us the splendid lines of the veterans of the Army of Northern Virginia swept down upon us. Their bearing was magnificent. They came forward with a rush, and how our men did yell, 'Come on, Johnny, come on!'

• Yes!--still I love thee: Time, who sets
  His signet on my brow,
  And dims my sunken eye, forgets,
  The heart he could not bow;--
  Where love, that cannot perish, grows
  For one, Alas! that little knows
  How love may sometimes last;
  Like sunshine wasting in the skies
  When clouds are overcast.

  Rufus Dawes

  Heart, Eye, Sunshine
