The “flavor of coarseness, possibly of irreverence” led many of the era to feel uncomfortable with the earliest “John Brown” lyrics. This in turn led to the creation of many variant versions of the text that aspired to a higher literary quality. The most famous of these is Julia Ward Howe’s “The Battle Hymn of the Republic,” which was written when a friend suggested, “Why do you not write some good words for that stirring tune?”
