HEROIC SPAIN

"Let nothing disturb thee, Nothing affright thee, All things are passing, God never changeth. Patient endurance Attaineth to all things, Who God possesseth In nothing is wanting, Alone God sufficeth." MAXIMS OF SAINT TERESA

"All national criticism in bulk is misleading and foolish, and I look on the belief of Spaniards that Spain ought to be great and strong as the most promising agency of her future regeneration."

JAMES RUSSELL LOWELL As Minister to Spain, in a letter Oct. 20, 1877
