"I give not Heaven for lost;"

"Which, if not victory, is yet revenge:"

"What though the field be lost?
All is not lost; the unconquerable will,
And study of revenge, immortal hate,
And courage never to submit or yield,
And what is else not to be overcome:"

"what peace can we return
But, to our power, hostility and hate?"

"This would surpass
Common revenge, and interrupt his joy
In our confusion:"

{174}

"Advise if this be worth
Attempting, or to sit in darkness here
Hatching vain empires:"

"What reinforcement we may gain from hope,
If not, what resolution from despair:"

"on whom we send
The weight of all and our last hope relies:"

"This enterprise
None shall partake with me."
