Mortemer occiz; E cil ki erent remez vif En Normendie erent chetif, Miz en anels et en gaoles.

Epoch after epoch, camp, kingdom, empire, republic, democracy, are merely the application of his manifold spirit to the manifold world."
— from Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine—Volume 62, No. 386, December, 1847 by Various
