Walter Scott Quotes

Meantime The Clang Of The Bows And The Shouts Of The Combatants Mixed Fearfully With The Sound Of The Trumpets, And Drowned The Groans Of Those Who Fell, And Lay Rolling Defenceless Beneath The Feet Of The Horses. The Splendid Armour Of The Combatants Was Now Defaced With Dust And Blood, And Gave Way At Every Stroke Of The Sword And Battle-axe. The Gay Plumage, Shorn From The Crests, Drifted Upon The Breeze Like Snowflakes. All That Was Beautiful In The Martial Array Had Disappeared, And What Was Now Visibke Was Only Calculated To Awaken Terror Or Compassion.
