HISTORY OF THE FORTY-THIRD REGIMENT, M.V.M.
SOUND THE LOUD TIMBREL. Shout the glad tidings, exultingly sing, Jerusalem triumphs, Messiah is king!
CHORUS. 1
Sound the loud timbrel o'er Egypt's dark sea! Jehovah has triumphed: his people are free.
Sing, for the pride of the tyrant is broken - His chariots, his horsemen, all splendid and brave ! CHORUS.
How vain was their boasting! the Lord hath but spoken, And chariots and horsemen are sunk in the wave. CHORUS.
Praise to the Conqueror! praise to the Lord ! His word was our arrow, his breath was our sword! CHORUS.
Who shall return to tell Egypt the story Of those she sent forth in the hour of her pride ? CHORUS.
For the Lord hath looked out from his pillar of glory, And all her brave thousands are dashed in the tide. CHORUS.
Te Deum Laudamus.
APPENDIX A.
HISTORICAL PORTION OF THE ADDRESS OF HON. R. C. WIN- THROP ON THE PRESENTATION OF THE COLORS OF THE FORTY-THIRD.
C YOL. CHARLES L. HOLBROOK, - You have been honored with the command of a regiment which has been enlisted under the auspices of the old Boston Light Infantry, and which has recognized its filial relations to that corps by calling itself " The Tiger Regiment." The officers and members of the Boston Light Infantry, past and present, and of the Second Battalion, of which it has recently formed a part, have accordingly desired to manifest their regard for your command by some substantial and visible token, which may accompany you on your tour of patri- otic service, and which may serve to remind you that there are those at home who will watch your movements with an eager in- terest and a jealous pride, and whose hearts will be with you in every hour of prosperous or adverse fortune which awaits you, - whether of endurance or of struggle, of tribulation or of triumph.
Sir, I need hardly recall in this presence the history of that old corps, whose familiar designation you have adopted, and whose character may seem in some sort committed to your keeping. You yourself, certainly, - who have risen to the successive com- mand of a regiment in peace, and now of a regiment in war, after so long and honorable a service in its ranks, - must know its history by heart. You have not forgotten how it sprung into existence just four and sixty years ago, in that memorable year 1798, when our infant republic was menaced, and more than men- aced, by the madness of revolutionary France, and when it seemed as if that gallant and generous nation which had done so much to aid us in establishing our independence, and whose arms had so

HISTORY OF THE FORTY-THIRD REGIMENT, M.V.M.
recently been united with our own in the crowning and consum- mate glory of Yorktown, were about to be made the instrument of a despotic directory in subjecting our youthful energies to a cruel and perhaps fatal test. Our own John Adams -John Yankee he was sometimes called - was then seated in the executive chair ; and the august and venerated Washington, having finished a career of military and civil service which has no parallel in the annals of mankind, had nobly consented to waive all considerations of previous rank, or present dignity and ease, and to assume the sub- ordinate position of lieutenant-general of the provisional armies of the United States. The pulse of patriotism, at that hour as at this, beat high throughout the land, and every bosom was ani- mated with the same desire to do something for the defence of the country, which is burning at this moment in every heart around me. It was then. that, the young men of Boston having united in one of those patriotic addresses which were among the peculiar features of the period, a reply was received from the President, containing those memorable words, "To arms, to arms, my young friends !"
To that appeal, which was publicly read at Faneuil Hall by the first elected commissioned officer of the corps, Ensign Francis J. Oliver, the establishment of the Boston Light Infantry was the immediate practical response.
You have not forgotten, sir, the solemn agreement which was forthwith adopted among the fundamental articles of its constitu- tion, - " that every man should pledge himself to support at all hazards his country, and the government which protects him, and that, unless commanded, he will never quit his standard till foreed from it by an honorable death," - a pledge which was afterwards inscribed upon that standard itself in the simpler and more compaet phraseology of " Death, or an honorable life."
Sir, as I have looked many a time and oft on that old motto emblazoned on the colors or accoutrements of our corps in those piping times of peace when I had the honor of being one of its officers, I have thought to myself that the sentiment was perhaps rather superfluously stern and solemn; and that so little proba- bility was there that it would ever again become applicable to any circumstanees which could arise in our free and happy land, that it might better be changed for something less heroic and defiant. But I rejoice this day that it never was changed. I rejoice that no
197

false confidence of our own, and no flippant ridicule of others, ever induced us to obliterate that time-honored legend from our banner or from our breasts. The day and the hour have at length arrived when we comprehend and appreciate its full significance, - " Death, or an honorable life." You can go forth to the field of duty under no more appropriate or impressive motto, endeared to you, as it will be, by so many memories of the past, and breathing, as it does, the precise spirit which should animate the present. Adopted with a view to sustain the civil authority of Jolin Adams and the military lead of George Washington, it will ever be associated with their noble names and glorious examples, and cannot fail to inspire you with something of that devoted constancy and courage in the defence of our Union, which they so signally displayed in establishing it.
It was in the spirit of this pledge and this motto, that our old corps, at their dinner at Concert Hall, after their first public parade, on the 18th of October, 1798, gave utterance to their earliest recorded toast : "The United States of America : as they have drawn the sword of justice with reason, may they never sheathe it with disgrace !" O sir, if, at that festal board at which our honored first commander, Daniel Sargent, presided, and around which were gathered more than one of those who bore the names and the blood of the patriot-mechanic, Paul Revere, and the patriot-statesman, James Otis, and the patriot-martyr, Joseph Warren, - for each one of these illustrious men had a son, or a nephew, or a near relative, on our original roll, -- if, in the midst of that festal scene, a vision of this day and this hour could have been unrolled before the eyes of those ardent and patriotic volunteers of '98, with what mingled grief and pride, with what contending emotions of agony and exultation, would they not have contem- plated it! - grief and agony, that the grand triumphal arch of Constitutional Union, which it had cost so much toil and treasure and precious blood to construct and cement, was so soon to be assailed, and threatened with overthrow, by an unnatural and an unholy rebellion, - pride and exultation, that, when that dark day should arrive, the noble battalions of patriotic young men should be heard responding, as they had responded to another President's appeal, "To arms, to arms !" and should be seen mustering, and marching forth to the defence of the country and the support of the government, under the influence of their example, and under the very motto of their banner.
198
HISTORY OF THE FORTY-THIRD REGIMENT, M. V.M.
In view of such a seene as this, destined in the decrees of a mysterious Providence to occur while at least one survivor of their patriotie band is still living to witness it, - in view of such a scene as this, could it then have been unfokled to their aching sight, with what renewed fervor, with what redoubled emphasis, with what reiterated cheers, would they have responded to that first toast, and that original pledge, " Death, or an honorable life !" "The United States of America : they have drawn the sword of justice with reason : may they never sheathe it with disgraee !"
I think it requires no stretch of imagination to eoneeive, that, if the founders of our corps had been initiated into the mysteries of a certain uncarthly sound which has almost become an institu- tion with their successors, there would have been added to those cheers more than one tiger-growl.
Nor, Mr. Commander, will this name of Tiger, which you have adopted from the more recent history of our eorps as the distinc- tive designation of your regiment, be without its own peculiar significance, now that your martial exercises are to be transferred from the parade-ground to the battlefield. There are those around me who remember how often, in years long past, we have reealled at our anniversary festivals those familiar lines of the immortal dramatist : ---
"In peace there's nothing so becomes a man As modest stillness and humility ; But, when the blast of war blows in our ears, Then imitate the action of the tiger."
Little did we dream in those hours of recreation, that we should ever have oeeasion to apply those lines to any exigency more serious than the skirmish or sham-fight of a militia muster. But we find them rising to our lips this day in all the solemn earnestness and stern severity in which they were first put by the great poet into the mouth of the monarch-hero of Agincourt. We feel that they are the very words for the hour, embodying the exact idea of that quick, sharp, strenuous, and overwhelming onset, which alone, so far as human eyes can reach, and human instruments are concerned, - would to Heaven we could see any other way ! - which alone can bring this deplorable and dreadful war to an carly and sue- cessful conelusion.
