第1606章 XXXII

"The stronger is the enemy, the more Easily is the vanquished side excused:

I could but faith maintain as, girded sore, The leaguered fort to keep her faith is used;

Even so, with all the sense, with all the lore By sovereign wisdom into me infused, This I essayed to keep; but in the end, To o'ermastering assault was forced to bend."
