The Remembrance Verses

Passage 2

“

Where nature's laws threatenend the weary; When food, water, even air itself ran low, It took just a command, a word, a smile, From the General to light the way. He was comfort, stem courage, compassion, To our sires as he led them from the fires That grew and fed on those they left behind.

”

-- The Remembrance, Passage 2, Verse 14, Lines 18-24

Passage 3

“

The just deaths of the traitors frightened some There among the darkness and alien stars. A few lost heart and began with aquavering resolve To question the Great Father's plan. With stern compassion he spoke and all was revealed; How their destiny was the Hidden Hope Of all mankind and how their sons' sons Would one day return to the Inner Spheres Bringing back the enlightenment to the Star League To those unfortunates they had left behind. Such was their right, such is our legacy of blood.

”

-- The Remembrance, Passage 3, Verse 22, Lines 1-11

Passage 8

“

The rebels, heeding neither strenght nor sense, Cowardly ambushed noble DeChevilier. Although he fight like a lion, he died And with his death came the clouds, and reason fled Like a winter sun's feeble evening light Above hopeless Eden and wicked Babylon.

”

-- The Remembrance, Passage 8, Verse 36, Lines 51-56

Passage 98

“

From Kerensky's Stars came the Eight Hundred Beneath a banner of Truth and Righteous Light To lift up those who had suffered and to smite down With fearful vengeance those who had ruled In the name of Vanity or Greed. The thunder of their BattleMech's feet, the lightning From their weapons, and the blood spilled in their name Created the Clan Spirit, the forge upon which We have fashioned ourselves to be the weapon Of the resurrected Star League, Honed to a razor's edge by the Trials, By the Remembrance, and by the Words Of the Great Kerenskys, our sires, our savior.

”

-- The Remembrance, Passage 98, Verse 24, Lines 8-20
