"Form into column once more!" As he spoke, the dense mass before us seemed agitated by some mightycommotion; the flashing of blades, and the rattling of small-arms, mingledwith shouts of triumph or defiance, burst forth, and the ominous cloudlowering more darkly, seemed peopled by those in deadly strife. An Englishcheer pealed high above all other sounds; a second followed; the mass wasrent asunder, and like the forked lightning from a thunder-cloud, Ramseyrode forth at the head of his battery,... the horses bounding madly, while theguns sprang behind them like things of no weight; the gunners leaped totheir places, and fighting hand to hand with the French cavalry, they flewacross the plain. "Nobly done, gallant Ramsey!" said a voice behind me. I turned at thesound; it was Lord Wellington who spoke. My eye fixed upon his sternfeatures, I forgot all else; when he suddenly recalled me to myrecollection by saying, -- "Follow your brigade, sir. Charge!" In an instant I was with my people, who, intervening betwixt Ramsey and hispursuers, repulsed the enemy with loss, and carried off several prisoners.
