And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
I read that back in the day, big horses like that were war horses, it would be very fatiguing for the rider to long distance on such a horse. It would be pretty frightening for any infantry to see a wall of well-armored war horses bearing down upon them. The knights rode palfreys to the battle.
Very handsome.
