Excerpt from Memoirs of Napoleon Bonaparte, Vol. 4 of 4: From the French of M. Fauvelet De Bourrienne Soldiers l - The territory of the Confederation has been violated. The Austrian general commanded us to flee the very aspect of his arms, and abandon our allies. I am here with the speed of lightning. Soldiers! I was surrounded by you when the Austrian monarch came to my bivouac in Moravia: you heard him implore my clemency, and swear to me the amity of a brother. Victors as we were in three wars, Austria owes all to our generosity: triply is she perjured! Our past success holds forth a sure pledge of the victory that awaits us. Forward, then! And at your presence let our fees acknowledge their conquerors! About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
