To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The loss of such public men, as were fitly described by the figure "strong rods," was deplored by the prophet as a public calamity. Hence, I regard the text as ex- pressing this sentiment : that the death of an able statesman is a public calamity, Mrst — I shall contemplate the use and application of the metaphor.
A parent is a strong rod to his family. The companion of his bosom leans on him for support and h.appiness, and his children look up to him for counsel and example.
A minister of the ...gospel is a strong rod to the church over which he has been placed as overseer.
A man eminently qualified for public business and usefulness in a political commu- nity, is a strong rod to a nation or a state.
We will proceed to notice some of these properties in public men, wJiich entitle them to the application of the figure "strong rods." 1. Great natural talents. These are to bfe found in strong reasoning powers and a vigorous understanding ; a peculiar aptitude and genius for public business ; a keen penetration into the tendencies of measures towards the welfare or injury of the com- munity, and the speediest means to advance the one and counteract the other — with clear perceptions of right and justice, and the false colors in which unjust measures are often disguised.
