in the assertion of treaty obligations
deliberately set at nought and for the
protection of the public law of Eu-
rope and the vital interests of my
empire to go to war
My navy and my army have with
unceasing vigilance, courage and skill
sustained, in association with our gal
liant and faithful allies, just and
righteous cause. From every part of
my empire there has been a spon-
taneous and enthusiastic rally to our
common flag.
"Gentlen en- of the House of Com
mons: l think you for the liberality
with which you have met a great
emergency. My Lords and Gentle
men we are fighting for a worthy pur-
pose and we shall not lay down our
arms until that purpose has been fully
achieved.
"I rely with confidence upon the
loyal and united efforts of all my SUBJ
jects and l pray that almighty God
may give us His blessing"

by strength, but by perseverance
