Excerpt from The Storming of QuebecAnd ye may now implore your fate, From British clemency Unless ye choose to meet the death, Rather than draw a captive's breath, To part with on the tree. Ye hear the challenge of the foe Nor this ye will - then, be it so. Briton, they yield to thee, Tho' yet believe against my will, But for their hopes this blade had still, Been grasped to set us free.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
