BURWELL: Where is he? I'll help you bury him.

MARTIN: I'll bury him.

BURWELL: My wife in Alexandria is with child. My first. I'll fight for that child. Benjamin, nothing will replace your sons. But if you come with us, you can justify their sacrifice.

MARTIN: Why? Why do men feel they can justify death? Is it arrogance or... I have long feared that my sins would return to visit me. And the cost is more than I can bear.

BURWELL: Benjamin, we have a chance. Greene and Dan Morgan are down for Virginia. If we win this next battle, victory in the war is within our grasp.

MARTIN: Go, then. Seek your victory. I'm small issue to it.

BURWELL: You're wrong Benjamin. You matter to your men and to others as well. Your victories and your losses are shared by more than you know. Stay with us. Stay the course.

MARTIN: I have run my course.

BURWELL: You men will be leaving with us. 

DELANCEY: Yes. Prepare the baggage.

BURWELL: Jean.

BURWELL: Tomorrow's battle can alter the course of the war. General Greene, what exactly is the task before us?

GREENE: Gentlemen, Cornwallis has us cornered. Not only does he outnumber us but nearly half of our force is militia. Unreliable, at best.

MARTIN: Excuse me, sir. I believe you underestimate our militia. All of you do.

GREENE: We've seen our militia lines break time and again. Kips Bay, Princeton.

MARTIN: But the British have seen that too. Corwallis' own letters bear out he has no respect for the militia now and so ever.

BURWELL: What are you suggesting, Ben?

MARTIN: I'm suggesting we use that.

妙语佳句，活学活用

1. With child

这个片语可不要理解成“和孩子在一起”哦。事实上，with child 是“怀孕”的意思，例如：She's with child.

除了with child，怀孕还可以用 expecting 表示，千万不要把它理解成“期望”，我们来看个例子：My wife is expecting again. 需要注意的一点是，表示“怀孕”时，expecting 只用于进行时态。

2. Stay the course

意为“Hold or persevere to the end 坚持到底”，例如：No, he's not resigning; he's going to stay the course. 这个片语来源于赛马，最初指的一匹马坚持跑完整个比赛。

3. Time and again

这个片语也写作 time and time again，意思是“重复不断地，经常地”，例如：Time and time again I warned her to stop smoking.

类似意思的表达还有time after time，again and again。

4. Bear out

“证实，证明”的意思，例如：The results bear out what he predicted.
