A millenium, or reign of Peace, having been prophesied, and becoming daily more and more indubitable, may it not be apprehended that such Fighting titles, will cease to be palatable, and new and higher need to be devised ?-Carlyle's Sartor Resartus. Your Herzog, (Duke, Dux) is leader of armies your Earl (Jarl) is strong man Marshal, cavalry horseshoer. 6.Īll high titles come hitherto from fighting. Till Truth and Right from Violence be freed.ĬERTAINLY, if all who look upon themselves as men, not so much from the shape of their bodies, as because they are endowed with reason, would listen awhile unto Christ's wholesome and peaceable decrees, and not, puffed up with arrogance and conceit, rather believe their owne opinions than his admonitions the whole world long ago, (turning the use of iron into milder workes) should have lived in most quiet tranquillity, and have met together in a firme and indissoluble League of most safe Concord.-Arnobius, Adversus Gentes LIB. For what can War but endless War still breed
