I say again the message of hope which His Majesty the King-Emperor gave
us is about to be redeemed. The banner of the empire is uplifted. Let
us close our ranks; let us be united. Let us put forward a definite,
and reasonable and sufficient scheme. Let us not be timid. Let us not
be foolhardy. Let us fight this battle for the honour of this country
and for the glory of the empire.
