“Time's change and chances I have abided, held my own fairly, sought not to snare men; oath never sware I falsely against right. So for all this may I glad be at heart now, sick though I sit here, wounded with death-”
John Richard Green, England During the Dark Ages

“The organization of each Folk, as such, sprang in all likelihood mainly from war, from a common greed of conquest, a common need of defence. Its form at any rate was wholly military. The Folk-moot was in fact the war-host, the gathering of every freeman of the tribe in arms.”
John Richard Green, England During the Dark Ages

“The ties of race and kindred were no doubt drawn tighter by the needs of war.”
