Behold, our King marches before us, who will fight for us. Let us follow Him like men of courage; and not shrink through fear. Let us be ready valiantly to die in battle, and not suffer our glory to be tarnished by flying from the standard of the Cross.
-Bk. III, ch. lvi.
_______________
He speaketh victory who seeks
In all things to obey;
O God of victories, my will
Here at Thy feet I lay!
I face undaunted shot and shell,
My weapon in my hand,
And singing go to meet my death,
For at Thy side I stand.
-Poems.
