Houghts, and in his patient, persevering, self-discipline, till his intellect cultivated from the center had become as true as was his heart, and an obedient and flexible in- strument of his will, and till he was hard- ly equalled in the force and transparent clearness with which he would state a point, and in the power of making the complex and obscure, simple and plain to the commonest minds.
