WHO is it speaks of defeat? — <br />I tell you a Cause like ours <br />Is greater than defeat can know; <br />It is the power of powers! <br />As surely as the earth rolls round, <br />As surely as the glorious sun <br />Follows the great world moon-wave, <br />Must our Cause be won! <br />What is defeat to us? — <br />Learn what a skirmish tells, <br />While the great Army marches on <br />To storm earth's Hells!<br /><br />Francis William Lauderdale Adams<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/defeat-22/
