Overview

Excerpt from Fragments From German Prose Writers Surrounded by the nations which have the chief and foremost influence on the condition and desti nies of mankind, lies our Fatherland strong against all, formidable to most, in six hundred thousand warriors, who have seldom been equalled, and never excelled. For whomsoever, or for whatsoever cause, they take up arms, whoever be their leader, with them rests the balance of political power, the liberties of Europe, the welfare of the human race. By Germans was the last universal monarchy over thrown; from among them proceeded the rulers of the states which arose out of its ruins, in one of whom, chosen by themselves, Europe recognized the title and rank of Caesar; while the abuse of his power was mainly checked by the spirit of German freedom.
