Men of England, heirs of Glory,
Heroes of unwritten story,
Nurslings of one mighty Mother,
Hopes of her, and one another;
Rise like Lions after slumber
In unvanquishable number,
Shake your chains to earth like dew
Which in sleep had fallen on you --
Ye are many -- they are few.

I wish, it's Percy Bysshe Shelley's "The Masque of Anarchy", my favourite poem.

My favourite clip ever is also from a poem by Percy Bysshe Shelley.
Heard it as a 12 year old and it still brings me up in goosebumps...
'Heaven's light forever shines, Earth's shadows fly;
Life, like a dome of many-coloured glass,
Stains the white radiance of Eternity. '
Haven't a clue what the poem is called,it is very long though!

Is it true that Guy Fawkes men, (the ones who legged it after he was caught) blew themselves up trying to dry out their wet gunpowder by the fire?
