A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This royal throne of kings, this scepter disle, This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars, This other Eden, demi-paradise. This fortress built by Nature for herself A gainst infection and the hand of war; This happy breed of men, this little world ;T his precious stone set in the silver sea, Which serves it in the office of a wall. Or as a moat defensive to a house. A gainst the envy of less happier lands ;T his blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England, This nurse, this teeming womb of royal kings, Fear dby their breed and famous by their birth, Renowned for their deeds as far from home, For Christian service and true chivalry, As is the sepulchre in stubborn Jewry, Of the worlds ransom, blessed Mary s Son: This land of such dear souls, this dear, dear land. Shakespeare. GOING TO THE WARS. Tell me not. Sweet, I am unkind That from the nunnery Of thy chaste breast and quiet mind To war and arms I fly.
