Hill could hear Rescorla issuing orders through the bullhorn. He was calm and collected, never raising his voice. Then Hill heard him break into song:

Men of Cornwall stop your dreaming;
Can’t you see their spearpoints gleaming?
See their warriors’ pennants streaming
To this battlefield.
Men of Cornwall stand ye steady;
It cannot be ever said ye
for the battle were not ready;
Stand and never yield!

Thanks.

Good refections. Should always be remembered.

Thanks. That brought tears to my eyes. I suspect, if you look up Hero’ in the dictionary, there must be a picture of Rick Rescorla accompanying the definition.
