But the Consul s brow was sad,
And the Consul s speech was low,
And darkly looked he at the wall,
And darkly at the foe.
Their van will be upon us
Before the bridge goes down
And if they once may win the bridge,
What hope to save the town?

And for the tender mother
Who dandled him to rest,
And for the wife who nurses
His baby at her breast,
And for the holy maidens
Who feed the eternal flame,
To save them from false Sextus
That wrought the deed of shame?

Hew down the bridge, Sir Consul,
With all the speed ye may
I, with two more to help me,
Will hold the foe in play.
In yon strait path a thousand
May well be stopped by three.
Now who will stand on either hand,
And keep the bridge with me?

Then out spake Spurius Lartius
A Ramnian proud was he:
Lo, I will stand at thy right hand,
And keep the bridge with thee.
And out spake strong Herminius
Of Titian blood was he:
I will abide on thy left side,
And keep the bridge with thee.

how can you explain Colonels commanding special forces units in SLA?

konapubandara:
My poor fellow, a colonel is a special case as colonels have tended to have a higher profile in specialist and command roles rather than as actual commanders of regiments. Brigadiers and other common military ranks do not fall into this special catergory. My advise to you is to stick to credit card scams and such without talking about military matters that you know nothing of.
Cheers!

I pray for him to burn in the hell for the crimes

Velir,

what was that big phrase?? like a poem for eelam or what???

Horatius
by Thomas Babington Macaulay

a country like you are talking about exists nowhere in the world.

no country is perfect everyone has their own problems, can you tell me any country which satisfy all peoples need ??

No country or group of people can reach break even regarding peoples needs always there is a loss for someone. it is the reality, still some can minimize it.
what you think is fair may not be fair for another... thats the summery.

whosoever being selected they are also people human.they are acting to their own belives people. like all tamils are raised with the belif that 'sinhala must be kiiled'

if you really think vp can win a poll then let him come on legally to table of contest then people will decide wht to do.

as i know most of tamils are also tired with LTTE brutal acts. in fact i had good friends from jaffna, hill country and colombo too. dont know whether they talked in real sense. but they were tired too with LTTE.
