To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Thus was felt and expressed and understood the great doctrine of our nationality and unity. The Constitution of the United States formed a supreme national government, which was none the less sacred because its powers were restricted to broad national purposes.
It may indeed be said that we cannot claim for the ilodrine of the national unity the character of a great ethical, or even a^reat abstract political truth ; that all States haying a common history, a common language and a common religio...n are not necessarily under one government. In proof of this, we may be pointed to the many independent states of Germany and to the republics of ancient Greece. True enough ; but when the national unity has come to distinct consciousness, as it did in our early history ; when it has written itself down in the form of an organic supreme laws as it did in our (Constitution ; when it sets up a Supreme Court as the ulliniatc tribunal, when it comes to administer the oath of allegiance, by which presidents, judges, senators and members of Congress, solemnly acknowledge the authority of their States to be inferior to that of the Union ; — when all this takes place, then for the American people national unity becomes a fundamental principle, it underlies the whole national life, and in its oaths of office, and other forms of obligation, it reaches over into the sphere of ethics, so that the advocacy of secession becomes a crime, both against the supreme law of the Country and against the law of God ; it involves treason against the nation, and the prostitution of the conscience by perjury.
