Triumphal Song of the Roman Army
A thousand, a thousand, a thousand,
A thousand, a thousand, a thousand,
We, with one warrior, have slain!
A thousand, a thousand, a thousand, a thousand,
Sing a thousand, over again!
Soho! – let us sing
Long life to our King,
Who knocked over a thousand so fine.
Soho! – let us roar,
He has given us more
Red gallons of gore
Than all Syria can furnish of wine!
– war chant, as quoted by Flavius Vopiscus in his Life of Aurelian (AD 362-63), translated by Edgar Allan Poe (1836)
