Did you hear what I said when I placed the crown on my head?" And he lifted his voice in imitation of the tones that had rung through the cathedral, ' ' God has given it to me. Woe to him who shall touch it ! " CHAPTEE XXII THE UNCONQUERED SEA 1801-1805 AGE 32-36 THE green lea that crowns with the velvet turf of Eng- land the chalk cliffs of Folkestone is hardly lost to the view of the passengers by the steamer that is bearing them to the shore of France, when they see a tall and beautiful Dori...c column rising from the sand dunes of Boulogne. That shining white obelisk is the boundary stone of the Empire of Napoleon, and on its top stands the bronze effigy of the man who spent fifteen years of his life in a futile effort to cross the English Channel. As the boat draws nearer the end of its voyage from the English isle to the continent of Europe, the ruined tower of Caligula is seen on the brow of the yellow heights, where the legionaries of Rome planted it in the fortieth year of the Christian era.
