The siege of Belgrade AN Austrian army, awfully arrayed, Boldly by battery besieged Belgrade. Cossack commanders cannonading come, Dealing destruction's devastating doom. Every endeavor engineers essay, For fame, for fortune fighting - furious fray! Generals 'gainst generals grapple - gracious God! How honors Heaven heroic hardihood! Infuriate, indiscrminate in ill, Kindred kill kinsmen, kinsmen kindred kill. Labor low levels longest, lofiest lines; Men march 'mid mounds, 'mid moles, ' mid murderous mines; Now noxious, noisey numbers nothing, naught Of outward obstacles, opposing ought; Poor patriots, partly purchased, partly pressed, Quite quaking, quickly "Quarter! Quarter!" quest. Reason returns, religious right redounds, Suwarrow stops such sanguinary sounds. Truce to thee, Turkey! Triumph to thy train, Unwise, unjust, unmerciful Ukraine! Vanish vain victory! vanish, victory vain! Why wish we warfare? Wherefore welcome were Xerxes, Ximenes, Xanthus, Xavier? Yield, yield, ye youths! ye yeomen, yield your yell! Zeus', Zarpater's, Zoroaster's zeal, Attracting all, arms against acts appeal! Alaric Alexander Watts - 1820 Build a man a fire and he's warm for a day. Set a man on fire and he's warm for the rest of his life. | ||

But they're frequently the fomenters! Go figure... It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society. -J. Krishnamurti | |||
