PatriotismBreathes there the man with soul so dead, Who never to himself hath said, 'This is my own, my native land!' Whose heart hath ne'er within him burn'd As home his footsteps he hath turn'dFrom wandering on a foreign strand?

Walter Scott

Walter Scott quote: "I will but confess the sins of my green cloak to my grey..."
