landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we
shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender, and even if, which

subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and
guarded by the British Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in
God’s good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps
forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old.
