The Napoleon of the People

Quote, Then we are drawn up before Alexandria, and again at Gizeh, and before the Pyramids. We had to march over the sands and in the sun; people whose eyes dazzled used to see water that they could not drink and shade that made them fume. But we made short work of the Mamelukes as usual, and everything goes down before the voice of Napoleon, who seizes Upper and Lower Egypt and Arabia, far and wide, till we came to the capitals of kingdoms whichnolonger existed,wherethere were thousands and thousands of statues of all the devils in creation, all done to the life, and another curious thing too, any quantity of lizards.
