Excerpt from John Brown, Vol. 1 Awu'r the issue. In all battles, if you await the issue, each fighter has prospered according to his right. His right and his might, at the close of the account, were one and the same. He has fought with all his might, and in exact proportion to all his right he has prevailed. His very death is no victory over him. He dies indeed, but his work lives, very truly lives. A heroic Wallace, quartered on the sca¿'old, cannot hinder that Scotland become, one day, a part of England: but he does hinder that it become, on unfair terms, a part of it, commands still, as with a god's voice, from his old Valhalla and Temple of the Brave, that there be a just real union as of brother and brother, not a false and merely sem blant one as of slave and master. - C'arlyle.
