Will Saragossa surrender? Death to him who says it!
Saragossa will not surrender. She will be reduced to powder. Of her historic houses, let not one brick remain upon another! Let her hundred temples fall, the ground beneath her open, pouring out flames; let her foundations be hurled into the air; let her roofs fall into the pits that are opened -- but among the fragments and the dead there will always be one tongue left alive to say that Saragossa will never surrender!
