valor y pericia, me complazco en la idea de que vais a presenlar al mundo todo la prucba mas segura de que los mejicanos supieron siempre repeler al invasor cstrangero. Companeros! El templo de la gloria se os ha abierto de nuevo, y la historia Liene consignadas paginas brillantes que va a llenar con vuestras hazanas. Volemos, pues, a donde nos llama el honor: hagamos ensenorear las Aguilas de la Republica en todo el territorio que les pertenece; y recuperemos al llustre Presidente y a nuestros hermanos que hoy encadena el enemigo; tornando despues al seno de la Patria que os reconocera coma siempre por sus buenos hijos.
