suddenly the wind of wrath blows
against the monarch's hosts. In the

the new men. like veterans seasoned
in long campaigns. Without knowing
the whips of the sergeants. the de

and iron discipline, without calling
themselves the favorites of the Most

eran conquerors of the world and
throw them back upon the Moseile,
astound them with their numbers
their strength. their simple and serene
valor. They went forward at quick
and measured pace and under their
feet the soil of France quivered in the
Joy of liberation.
