. Children's ballads from history and folklore . THE war in the East had ended;Its terrors were past, they said;There was peace, once more, for the living,And peace for the valiant dead. Through the splendid squares of Lucknow The Highlanders marched again ;The heroes of fortress and jungle,Brave Havelocks peerless men ! Ay ! open your gates, O Lucknow ! —But measure, ye guards, your breath, As ye think of those days, an hundred,When Ha\elock marched with death.
