The Fall of Britannia Quotes

“Caratacus stood at the mouth of a cave contemplating the scene below him. The stream pouring through the gulley had carved this feature in the landscape over tens of thousands of years and the water fell angrily from the inaccessible gorges above. For years, it had been the hiding place of fugitives and brigands, but the sight of five hundred battle weary warriors descending on their hideout had persuaded the incumbents it was probably in their interests to move out, and Caratacus had taken over the gorge with little argument. - Chapter 35”
