| [00:53.256] | July 14, 1861 |
| [00:56.049] | Washington, D. c |
| [01:00.715] | Dear Sarah: |
| [01:03.501] | Indications are very strong that we shall move in a few days, perhaps tomorrow. |
| [01:09.878] | Lest I should not be able to write you again, |
| [01:13.132] | I feel impelled to write a few lines that may fall under your eye when I shall be no more. |
| [01:20.047] | I have no misgivings about or lack of confidence in the cause in which I am engaged, |
| [01:25.741] | and my courage does not halt or falter. |
| [01:29.808] | I know how great a debt we owe to those who went before us through the blood and suffering of the revolution. |
| [01:37.625] | And I am willing— |
| [01:38.685] | perfectly willing– |
| [01:40.320] | to lay down all my joys in this life to pay that debt. |
| [01:46.078] | Sarah, my loves for you is deathless. |
| [01:51.100] | It seems to me bind me with mighty cables that nothing but omnipotence could break. |
| [01:57.944] | And yet my love of country comes over me like a strong wind and bears me irresistibly,with all these chains, to the battlefield. |
| [02:09.511] | The memory of all the blissful moments I have enjoyed with you come crowding over me, |
| [02:16.163] | and I feel most deeply grateful to God and you that I have enjoyed them so long. |
| [02:24.311] | And how hard it is for me to give them up and burn to ashes the hopes of future years when, |
| [02:31.632] | God willing, we might still have lived and loved together and seen our sons grow up to honorable manhood around us…… |
| [02:41.394] | If I do not return, my dear Sarah, never forget how much I love you, |
| [02:48.715] | nor that when my last breath escapes me on the battlefield, it will whisper your name. |
| [02:54.816] | Forgive my many faults and the many pains I have caused you. How thoughtless, how foolish I have sometimes been. |
| [03:04.171] | But, oh Sarah! |
| [03:06.205] | If the dead can come back to this earth and flit unseen around those they love, |
| [03:12.713] | I shall always be with you in the brightest days and in the darkest nights. |
| [03:17.187] | Always. Always. |
| [03:20.034] | And when the soft breeze fans your cheeks,it shall be my breath; |
| [03:24.982] | and as the cool air fans your throbbing temple,it shall be my spirit passing by. |
| [03:31.597] | Sarah, do not mourn me dead: |
| [03:35.490] | think I am gone and wait for me, for we shall meet again. |
