Defended though he be by a mighty host, <br>let Don John of Austria come on only to be driven home again. Fate is unknown to man, <br>nor are the counsels of the Thunderer fully determined. <br>And what if suddenly a most powerful enemy should invade our borders? <br>If the Turk should be arming his savage hosts against us? <br>What though the terrible war trumpet is even now sounding its blast? <br>Thou wilt see it all; even at this very moment thou art fiercely longing for the fray. <br>I feel it. Our whole country knows it. </div><div style="margin:10px 0">In thy breast is noble blood, Courage animates thy brow, Mars lives in thy tongue, <br>Minerva strengthen thy right hand, Bellona reigns in thy body, within thee burns the fire of Mars. <br>Thine eyes flash fire, thy countenance shakes a spear; <br>who would not swear that Achilles had come to life again?</div><div style="margin:10px 0"><br /></a><br />poem by <a href="http://en.citatepedia.ro/by.php?a=Gabriel+Harvey">Gabriel Harvey</a><div class=q>
