The Purchase of the Trutli. 261 Still another item of cost to us in securing and main- taining- the truth with us in life, is that of moral courage, to bear, when necessary, the ill-will of the false or the malicious. The history of our world abounds in exam- ples of those, who, for putting faith in the word of God and the dictates of reason, who, for adhering to the truth, have suffered from the ill-will of the ignorant, the prejudiced, the licentious and malicious. There have been martyrs to ...the truth of God, to the truths of nature, to moral truths, and to political. So ignorant are men, so prejudiced by their passions, so corrupt often in their lives, that to stand up among them as the holder and defender of truth, must sometimes cost the courage of facing, if not a physical, yet a moral martyrdom. To have the name cast out as evil, to be defamed and mocked and threatened, is the punishment visited upon them, even in the best regulated communities, from the ill-will of opposers. One must make up his mind then to pay this cost whenever it is necessary, if he would be a holder and friend of the truth : The moral courage to decide accord- ing to truth and the nature and reality of things, however much it may cause us to differ from the judgments, the customs, or practices of the age : To hold on to the truth, as that which will support us and will survive the prejudices and ill-will of a present generation.
