War would demand enormous sacrifices of blood and property from the
German people, but we should show our enemies what it means to
provoke Germany.

And now I commend you to God. Go to church. Kneel down before God
and pray for His help for our gallant Army.

FORGIVES ENEMIES.


Kaiser Wilhelm's Speech from the Balcony of the Palace, Berlin, Aug. 2.

I thank you for the love and loyalty shown me. When I enter upon a
fight let all party strife cease. We are German brothers and
nothing else. All parties have attacked me in times of peace. I
forgive them with all my heart. I hope and wish that the good
German sword will emerge victorious in the right.
