第10章 THE BATTLE OF TRENTON

And such they are--and such they will be found:

Not so Leonidas and Washington, Their every battle-field is holy ground Which breathes of nations saved, not worlds undone.

How sweetly on the ear such echoes sound!

While the mere victor's may appal or stun The servile and the vain, such names will be A watchword till the future shall be free.

--Byron.
