PORTUGUESE PORTRAITS

A notavel fama dos excelentes barões e muito antiguos antecessores dina de perpetua lembrança

TO
THE COUNTLESS FORGOTTEN HEROES
OF PORTUGAL

In burning sands or Ocean’s blinding silt,
In Africa, Asia, and the icy North,
They lie: yet came they home who thus went forth,
Since of their bones is all their country built.
