“Long, long may it be, ere he comes again! His hour is one of darkness, and adversity, and peril.”
Nathaniel Hawthorne book The Gray Champion

But should domestic tyranny oppress us, or the invader's step pollute our soil, still may the Gray Champion come, for he is the type of New England's hereditary spirit; and his shadowy march, on the eve of danger, must ever be the pledge, that New England's sons will vindicate their ancestry.
