have been the
sacrificial victims of the race, without gloss, in all its truth and
simplicity; the history of the men you have shown yourselves to be in
suffering.
If I left this undone, you would, no doubt, be cured as perfectly, or
would perish none the less; but the essence of the majestic lesson would
be lost, the most splendid elements of your courage would remain barren.
And I invite all the world to bow before you with the same attentive
reverence, WITH HEARTS THAT FORGET NOTHING.
Union of pure hearts to meet the ordeal! Union of pure hearts that
our country may know and respect herself! Union of pure hearts for the
redemption of the stricken world!
