With music strong I come, with my cornets and my drums,
I play not marches for accepted victors only, I play marches for conquer’d and slain persons.
Have you heard that it was good to gain the day?
I also say it is good to fall, battles are lost in the same spirit
in which they are won.

I beat and pound for the dead,
I blow through my embouchures my loudest and gayest for them.
Vivas to those who have fail’d!
And to those themselves who sank in the sea!
And to those whose war-vessels sank in the sea!
And to all generals that lost engagements, and all overcome heroes!
An the numberless unknown heroes equal to the greatest heroes known!
Walt Whitman
