WHAT place is besieged, and vainly tries to raise the siege? <br /> Lo! I send to that place a commander, swift, brave, immortal; <br /> And with him horse and foot--and parks of artillery, <br /> And artillery-men, the deadliest that ever fired gun.<br /><br />Walt Whitman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/what-place-is-besieged/
