'Stable Call' ad 'Taps'

The words to "Stable Call":

Come all who are able and go to the stable,
And water your horses and give them some corn.
For if you don't do it the colonel will know it
And then you will rue it as soon as you're born.

The words to "Taps":

Fading light
Dims the night,
And a star
gems the sky,
Gleaming bright,
From afar
drawing nigh,
Falls the night.

Dear one, rest
In the west
Sable night
Lulls the day
on her breast,
Sweet, good-night!
Now away
To thy rest.

Love, sweet dreams!
Lo, the beams
Of the light
Fairy moon
kiss the streams,
Love, good-night!
Ah, so soon!
Peaceful dreams!
