Scott
dedicates their expedition, both as proof of that Englishmen can endure
hardships, help one another, and meet death with as great fortitude,
(“We took risks, we knew we took them;
things have come out against us, and here fore we have no cause for complaint,
but bow to the will of Providence, determined still to our best to the last.”)
and as a honor of their country. (“But if
we have been willing to give our lives to this enterprise, which is for the honor
of our country, I appeal to our countrymen to see that those who depend on us
are properly cared for.”)
