"Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more;
Or clog the seat up with our fallen dead;
In peace there's nothing so becomes a man,
As modest stillness and humility:
But when the horns of war blow in our stomachs,
Then imitate the action of the tiger;
Stiffen the sinews, summon up the courage."
The troops came out today in full force; hail our English dead. Their burial was swift and messy; no sign from God nor shafts from heaven smiled on us this day. But we will not forsake the faith.
