3. There were, perhaps, in the American army, officers who were more dashing than Washington ; but there .was none that so united all the qualities which make a great captain. He was sometimes defeated, as at Long Island and on the Brandywine. He had often to retreat before the enemy, as in New Jersey and in Pennsylvania. But he made the enemy pay dearly for any success. 4. Sometimes he would turn upon them (as at Trenton, after his retreat behind the Delaware), and deliver a stunning blow when... the enemy least expected it. His march on Yorktown, after outwitting Clinton at New York, was a great stroke of generalship. 5. That which more than any one thing in the character of Washington made the success of the Revolution was his firmness in the worst times and places. Amid the ice of the Delaware and in the terrible, try- ing scenes of Valley Forge, he never for a moment lost faith in the cause. 6. Washington was perfectly unselfish be- cause he was perfectly /^/r/^//^. He refused to take any^Day.
