THE HIGHLAND BRIGADE'S GRAND PARADE MARCH.

Ye sods of the mountains ! sons of the brave ! TTp.up with thy fla«,f rora the heights let it wave; Long may it fl >at over mountain and sea, 'Tis a glonoua flag the flap of the free. Think of thy clausnaen with many a scar, How fearless they fought 'midst the dangers of war; Though wounded and bleeding still onward they pressed, Till over their foes waved bonnet and ores 1 . Chorus— March, ye brave kiltie lads, faithful audtiue, March with thy plaidies and bonnets sac blue; While the pibroch is sounding by mountain and glade, March to the march of the Highland Brigade. Ye sons of the mountain ! sons of the brave ! T7p,up with thy flag, from the heights let it wave; How proudly it floats all over the worM, Tis freedom or death where that flag is uufurled. Hark ! 'tis the sound of the bugle you hear, The signal is given, the invaders are near, Haste to the battle-field, make them roll under, No foeman thy land of adoption shall plunder. Chorus— March, ye brave, &o. Ye sons of the mountains ! sons of the brave ! Up, up with thy flag.from the heights let it wave; Long may it float over mountain and sea, 'Tis a glorious flag the flag of the free. Hark to the cannons, lads ; hear how they rattle; Up with thy colors, be foremost in battle — Foremost in battle, shout the war cry, To the field brave Highlanders, conquer or die. Chorus — March, ye brave, &c. E. Colville (" D. D.") Lawrence, 26th September, ISSS,
