Excerpt from Dad
The few who recognized it showed no resentment. To their spanish-indian minds it was but natural that the victors should thus crow.
They themselves were beaten; hopelessly beaten. They and their country. They were glad enough to get off as easily as they seemed like to.
A little vaunting - the playing of their new mas ters' national song - was nothing to what they would have done had the conditions been reversed.
