 Scared, bruised, wounded but fighting still, the youth Belgium feu back and back before the steel clad, blood-reeking monster, and Bel gfum's name shall ever be honored. He used the sling and the pebbles well and fought a good fight. Brave Belgium.

 The nations said that to Lux embOurg in 1867. Her only for tress was then dismautled and razed 10 the ground and her army was reduced and limited to one company of gendarmes and one company of infantry. Thus she was made powerless to resist. She was made as defenseless of Nydia, the blind girl of Pompeii. It was like some chapter in tales of an cient chiYalry, with Luxembourg the tendaz, helpless maiden, surrounded by the brave and true knights sworn to protect her. Had the knights sworn by the blood of CGrist (as knights did in Olden days) their oaths could not have been more solemnIy sacred.
