Description: These words, sung to the tune known and generally used by the soldiers in Civil War times as "John Brown's Body," were written in December, 1861, in the course of a visit the author made to washington. Impelled by the grim reality and significance of the war as it appeared in its nearer aspects, she wrote the verses under the inspiration of intese patriotic feeling, and a great Battle Hymn was born, never to die.
