“Nor shall they silent in my song remain, they who in regions there where Dawns arise, by Acts of Arms such glories toil'd to gain, where thine unvanquisht flag for ever flies, Pacheco, brave of braves; th' Almeidas twain, whom Tagus mourns with ever-weeping eyes ; dread Albuquerque, Castro stark and brave, with more, the victors of the very grave.” — Richard Francis Burton
