In great deeds, something abides.  On great fields, something stays.

Forms change and pass; Bodies disappear, but spirits linger,

To consecrate ground for the vision-place of souls.

And reverent men and women from afar, and generations that

Know us not and that we know not of, heart-drawn to see

Where and by Whom great things were done for them,

Shall come to this deathless field, and Lo!

The shadow of a mighty presence shall wrap them in its bosom,

And the power of the vision pass into their souls…

Dedication of Gettysburg Battlefield

October 3, 1889
