Convoluted translation attempt 世界のすべて城砦に抱く


I'm trying to make sense of the words said by a character in a manga who talks
in an archaic manner. I tried into account the context, the images, all to
help me figure out what he is saying.  

> 俺を見ろ子供！世界のすべて城砦に抱く英雄たる男の背を！  
>

The character says all this like a declaration and looking at how it's
structured, they remind me of lyrics a bit, which makes it tricky as I know
how vague they can be and sometimes have verbs or even particles omitted. The
fact that I have seen the ~を particle at the end gave me the impression of
song lyrics, that's where I see it a lot in that way.  

I attempted to translate it even partially after I broke down all the words:  
"Watch me/Look at me children!" <-This was easy, then I looked towards the end
of the sentence for 英雄たる男の背を which I can assume that the 'back of the hero' is
connected to the first part, the subject being 俺 and that's why I think を is
there at the end to mark it.  
  
For the part here 城砦に抱く I had an image in my mind, thinking that this can be
taken figuratively, to sound more poetic and I translated as "embracing like a
fortress" as a poetic way to say "to protect".  
I only thought of this possibility due to another example

> この本を褒美 **に** あげる (I will give you this book as a reward)  
>

In the above sentence, what role does the に particle have there? Because I
could use として and it would have the same meaning and I don't think the
particle has that use, but that it is how I thought of it to get to my
translation.  
If it was 城砦として抱く (to embrace like/in the role of/ in the manner of a
fortress).  
  
I really don't know if whatever I said makes any sense, if I explained
enough...I would appreciate any opinion and interpretation if possible!  
Thank you in advance!




The verb that corresponds to 背を is 見ろ. He rephrased 俺 with a more concrete and
dramatic phrase, 世界のすべて城砦に抱く英雄たる男の背. Since this is not in a casual situation,
I feel を is missing before 城砦, but it may be possible if this is recited in a
verse-like way.

So the "plain" version of this sentence is:

> 世界のすべて **を** 城砦に抱く英雄たる男の背を見ろ！  
>  Behold the back of the man (=俺), the hero who embraces the entire world in
> a fortress!

に in 城砦に抱く should be a kind of a destination marker (i.e., the world goes into
a fortress). For example, you can say 赤ん坊を腕に抱く.
