O knihe
Excerpt from Germany and Germans
Khartoum. The German feeling for the Rhine can be understood only by sympathy, and the stately colossal figure of Germania at Niederwald, formed of the metal of Erench cannon and gazing across a river now all her own, expresses one of the most vivid thoughts in the mental world of the average German. I have seen divisions of soldiers marched up the hill to gaze at the statue and to hear the story of its installation. One cannot read the poetry of that time without a quickened pulse, and poetry gives a truer ~idea of national feeling than the discussions of diplomats. No doubt the authorities were not always so true-hearted, so rich ln faith and devotion, as the common people, but it is the common people that we are called on to love, not. The actions of their small band of leaders.
