Manuscript of the poem “Farewell Words of 7th of June 1848” tucked inside a manuscript poem book on love(last 3 pics)

The paper seems much older than the book that is inside it and I suspect it was written by the original poet himself but I don’t know how it got there and why it was tucked in a romance book of all things.

The transcription of the poem provided by the wonderful folks in the r/ Transcription:

Vom düstern Flor des Schmerzes
Ist das Aug' umhüllt,
Die Thrän' sie dringt hervor,
Wie Thau vom Himmel quillt.

Lebet wol, Ihr hohen Helden,
Voll von Kraft und Muth,
Die Ihr Glück und Heil
Erkauft mit Eurem Blut.

Die Ihr mit Eurem Geist'
Die Finsterniß verbannt,
Die Ihr das wahre Recht,
Der Wahrheit Kron' erkannt.

Manch' Aug' ist thränerfüllet,
Und manch' seufzend Ach
Drängt sich, Ihr hohen Helden,
Euch durch die Lüfte nach.

Kommt wieder, kom[m]t recht bald
An unser Bruderherz,
Das Euch Treu' geschworen
In Freud' so wie in Schmerz.

Zum Abschied' nehmt von uns
Den Schwur der Liebe noch,
So leb' die Wiener Garde,
Kameraden, lebet hoch.

Garde vB Brünn.
