Black and white postcard with drawing of Robert Emmet giving a speech at his trial. ‘Robert Emmet delivering his famous speech from the dock, 19 September 1803 “Oh, my country, was it personal ambition that could influence me? Had it been the soul of my actions, could I not, by my education and fortune,, by the rank and consideration of my family have placed myself amongst the proudest of your oppressors? My country was my idol. To it I sacrificed every selfish, every endearing sentiment, and for it I now offer myself, O God!” (Robert Emmet)’
