Germany, Germany,
Your strength and glory
Do not lie in Reichs or Führers,
Nor in Iron Chancellors,
But rather in a monk-missionary
Raised in a monastery,
Blessed by Boniface,
And like him an apostle to your race.
This Sturmi, founder of Fulda,
The nuns Gunthild and Agatha,
The martyr Ursula –
. . .
The rest is at https://www.newenglishreview.org/articles/german-greatness/.

Holy Ælfred the Great, King of England, South Patron, pray for us sinners at the Souð, unworthy though we are!
Anathema to the Union!
