There followed an enor- mous expansion in British foreign trade, which has never ceased to grow from that day until within the last few years. When a man arms himself with the Bible, and clothes himself in the shining armor of scripture, look out for him! One seems to be able to strike more suddenly, more unexpectedly, and more fiercely with that weapon than with any other. England's greatness began and grew under Protection. France on land, and England on the sea, destroyed utterly the Dutch c...ommercial supremacy, and then for a century England and THE GREAT MUGHAL 127 France fought for the mastery of the sea, for the trade of the East, for commercial supremacy. Finally at Waterloo the mastery was gained, and the British Empire has had plain sailing from that day till within the last few years. There are few more exciting stories than this history of the fight for the commercial empire of the world, which ended in England's becoming the trader, the manufacturer, the ship-builder, the ship-owner, the banker, and the policeman of the world.
