Why Great Britain was once great.

This is Nimrod from Elgar's Enigma Variations. I'm not sure what he would have named this piece today, given the modern meaning of its title.

Still, there are times I'm proud to be British, and this is one of them. A melancholy reminder of how great a people we once were, and how far from grace we've fallen.
