. . .
"Let me repeat. The one condition is that the army and its chiefs shall feel back of them a country ready for all sacrifices, with undaunted souls, unflinching wills, and a definite, coherent government.
"A weakening of the will, a feebleness of soul, would be as detestable as desertion. To lack constancy to-day is to desert before the enemy. It is treason. We all have our duty, — the government, the press, public opinion. This duty, in a single word, is firmness, which implies harmony, c...almness, the stoic acceptance of events, and ardent confi- dence in the destiny of our country.
"At certain critical hours a cry of anger is a blasphemy, a doubt may be a crime. The victory is hard to win, but certain. Let the whole nation deserve it. Each man to his post! Let us take for ourselves the simple and sub- lime words of the great Englishman: * France expects every man to do his duty. ' " In the period at which we have arrived the French people could draw confidence from the reflection that the political parties had adhered to the sacred union inaugu- rated at the commencement of hostilities and that the de- fense of the country had not been paralyzed by internal dissension, that the nation had faced the most critical hours Public Opinion and Sentiment 391 with unshaken firmness, and that, in addition to the tradi- tional qualities of courage and fervor, it had given won- derful proof of patience, tenacity, and stoicism.
