"FOR MY OWN PART, OF PROPERTY
I HAVE SOME, OF REPUTATION MORE
THAT REPUTATION IS STAKED,
THAT PROPERTY IS PLEDGED ON
THE ISSUE OF THIS CONTEST; AND
ALTHOUGH THESE GRAY HAIRS MUST
SOON DESCEND INTO THE SEPULCHRE,
I WOULD INFINITELY RATHER
THAT THEY DESCEND THITHER BY
THE HAND OF THE EXECUTIONER
THAN DESERT AT THIS CRISIS THE
SACRED CAUSE OF MY COUNTRY."
