those who look back, evokng single remem-
brance Of past times" 1t asks the insurgents to

offer you as an olive branch the white nag You
are our brothers. Come and share the
glory which awaits US, shaking from the
world the tutelage OF tyrants. Do not
fail to respond to your brothers call. II you re-
main true to bastard ideas do not believe that a
single Spaniard will be with you. Nothing justfes
your actions. and II you desire war every repubi-
