The unstable estimates of men crowd to him whose mind is filled with a truth, as the heaped waves of the Atlantic follow the moon. For this self-trust, the reason is deeper than can be fathomed, darker than can be enlighten ed. I might not carry with me the feeling of my audience in stating my own belief. But I have already shown the ground of my hope, in adverting to the doctrine that man is one. I be lieve man has been wronged ; he has wronged himself. He has almost lost the light, that can l...ead him back to his prerogatives. Men are be come of no account. Men in history, men in the world of to-day are bugs, are spawn, and are called the mass and the herd. In a cen tury, in a millenium, one or two men ; that is to say, one or two approximations to the right state of every man. All the rest behold in the hero or the poet their own green and crude being, ripened ; yes, and are content to be less, so that may attain to its full stature. What a tes timony, full of grandeur, full of pity, is borne to the demands of his own nature, by the poor clansman, the poor partisan, who rejoices in the glory of his chief.
