Excerpt from Vamos ??? M???xico Cortez would wait no longer; despite the king's command, through Velasco' 8 order, embarked, sailed before fair winds, landed on an unknown shore, burned his Ships behind him and commenced a march against a warlike people whose thousands 'of warriors might any day fall upon his handful of followers and destroy them; all undaunted he led his soldiers under the very walls, but they seemed to fall down before him - that he might enter In and place his name on the first page of a history that Is stranger than fiction and fill the other pages with the dauntless deeds of a conqueror and his fearless followers. The Aztecs and the Toltecs, in wandering tribes, came from no man knows where - had made a great city in the midst of the plain of Anahuac and defended their capital within the walls of Tenochtitlan 'gainst the despoiling Spaniards, but their arrows fell as straws, harmless on the armored soldiers; who answered with terrible machines that sent forth fire and brimstone with the leaden messengers of death, and mowed down the astonished warriors in countless thousands, and the empire of the Aztecs ended when Montezuma fell. What interesting stories the pictured writings of the Aztecs might tell of their wanderings; whence they came and how their cities were builded will forever go unread, and Prescott's tale of the Conquest must suffice through his entrancing pages, but make us wish for more.
