Forward with your sickles bright, Reap the harvest of the fight.
After four years of indefatigable exertions — doubt and disaster — success and glory — sickness and privation — ^hope and delight— the British army began to prepare for the promising campaign of 84 RECOLLECTIONS OF THE 1813, under a chief whose military talents had riveted the confidence ahke of his soldiers, as the citizens of that empire, for whose weal — for whose glory — for whose existence -as a mistress of the world, he had ...shared in all the privations and sufferings of his troops, and was ready still to endure even to death, or crown his country's hopes with success in that mighty and awful strife which engaged her so long. The winter had passed, and the early spring of Portugal had brought to that country reinforcements, money, and equip- ments, the want of which had but too frequently impeded the success of our army in the Peninsula.
Transports were continually floating up the sunny Tagus, with their red-cross flags waving from tlie masts — their decks covered with glittering accou- trements, and hearty soldiers: fresh detachments and fresh regiments were daily filing off the pub- lic squares of Lisbon, to join the grand army ; while the eyes of the often disappointed Portu- guese followed them with patriotic hope, and their hearts and tongues ejaculated wishes for their vsuccess.
