You're not going to like this. Come, children of the Fatherland, the day of glory has arrived: The bloody standard of tyranny has been raised against us. Do you hear, in our countryside, the roaring of those fierce soldiers> The have come to strangle our women and children in our arms. To arms, citizens! Form your battalions! Let us march, so that impure blood may flow in the furrows of our fields! Charming, no? of course, at the time it was written, France was threatened with invasion by the counter-revolutionary forces of every monarchy in Europe.
