"During the fall of 1245, he besieged, for the third time, the impregnable city of Jaen, east of Cรณrdoba and just north of Granada Although harsh weather soon prevailed, in order to boost morale, Ferdinand planted his tent in the middle of camp and announced it would remain there until he had "the unconquerable stronghold in his power." When a large group of Muslims came sallying forth out of the city, "as was his custom," Ferdinand"was the first to take the spear and began to encourage his men with words of audacity." Then, after casting his sight up to heaven and saying "I seek Thy glory, Lord, not mine," he turned to his men and cried "Santiago and Castile!" before plunging into the fray." - Excerpt from the book "Defenders of the West" by Raymond Ibrahim
Also from Saint Ferdinand III
โWe shall not rest while the Moors trample our churches, enslave our people, and mock the name of Christ. This land is not theirs by right โ it was stolen, and we shall take it back.โ
