The Remembrance

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[1]

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[2]

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[3]
