Additional quotes by Thomas Campbell

The combat deepens. On, ye brave,
Who rush to glory or the grave!
Wave, Munich! all thy banners wave,
And charge with all thy chivalry!

Who hath not owned, with rapture-smitten frame,
The power of grace, the magic of a name?

But sad as angels for the good man's sin,
Weep to record, and blush to give it in.
