[Porterville]

You can replace Saxon with liberal... and it still fits today.

[Just mythoughts]

Not a chance, no way can a liberal be called "best man-at-arms you can find".

Read it again, if this is put forth to describe "Liberals" then the line about

"But he never means anything serious till he talks about justice and "RIGHT"

in no way, shape, or form describe anything "liberal" they never speak to what is "RIGHT"!

[fortaydoos]

Indeed. The saxons have ever lusted after the property and achievements of their betters: the Normans. Were it not for Normans, England would have never had her empire.

The only problem was it was so easy to best the saxons, simpering cowards that they were/are.
