Resting On-Soldier John An Epitaph

Resting on-solder John AN EPITAPH

So dies this wayward soldier laid at rest
Battled on raging strong
At skies night he fellowships
Now with those others veterans of other wars
His body now at peace
As God has him now on His golden streets
Resting on-soldier John
