Our gracious Sovereign—more so even than his deceased father, who had also a conspicuous gift that way—has ever shown a singular felicity in voicing the sentiments of his people, but never more so than when he sent this message to Sir John French: "The splendid pluck, spirit, and endurance shown by my troops in the desperate fighting which has continued for so many days against vastly superior forces fills me with admiration." That sovereign message to his heroic soldiers—such as his ancestor Henry V. might have addressed to his 10,000 long-enduring conquerors on the night of Agincourt—was nobly supplemented by this passage from the following day's Speech

Da Vinci
Volume 1Translated by Jean Paul Richter1888PREFACE.A singular fatality has ruled the destiny of nearly all the mostfamous of Leonardo da Vinci's works. Two of the three most importantwere never completed, obstacles having arisen during his life-time,which obliged him to leave them unfinished; namely the SforzaMonument and the Wall-painting of the Battle of Anghiari, while thethird--the picture of the Last Supper at Milan--has sufferedirremediable injury from decay and the repeated restorations towhich it was recklessly subjected during the XVIIth and XVIIIthcenturies. Nevertheless, no other picture of the Renaissance hasbecome so wellknown and popular through copies of every description.Vasari says, and rightly, in his Life of Leonardo, "that he labouredm
