Página 90 - Rhamet, the most eminent of their chiefs, one of the bravest men of his time, and as famous throughout the East for the elegance of his literature, and the spirit of his poetical compositions (by which he supported the name of Hafiz) as for his courage, was invaded with an army of a hundred thousand men, and an English brigade.
Página 159 - My youth is over!" sighed he, (Meine Jugend ist hin /) and he covered his face with his hands. It was a noble cry for a boy of nineteen, for it told of duties accepted, and of devotion to an arduous task.
