:29:00
l was glad
the orders met my wishes.
:29:11
But, in the end, my men were
especially useful to Garibaldi.
:29:19
l freed him from those men
hanging around him,
:29:23
that used him to reach their
own aims, which, maybe,
:29:27
- ..were also those
of Palazzo Farnese. - l agree.
:29:30
They were very different from
the men who had landed with him.
:29:36
They believed ltaly could be made
only by means of a revolution.
:29:42
The General knows this very well.
:29:46
ln fact, when l kneeled to him,
he shook my hand.
:29:53
And he whispered to me:
''Thank you, Colonel.''
:29:59
What for ? l wondered.
To have made him lame ?
:30:04
No, but for having made it clear
to him that many of his followers
:30:10
were nothing but cowards.
:30:13
Allow me, Colonel. Don't you think
you have exaggerated
:30:18
with all those kneeling
and compliments ?
:30:24
No, l'm sure l haven't.
:30:28
You should have seen that poor,
great man,
:30:33
lying on the ground
under a chestnut tree,
:30:36
bearing a terrible pain,
not only in his body,
:30:39
but also in his spirit !
Really touching.
:30:44
When he landed again in Sicily,
he said:
:30:47
''We're going
towards the unknown...''.
:30:51
lt was impossible
not to give way to emotion.
:30:55
Why shouldn't have l, anyway ?
:30:58
l only kiss the ladies' hand.
