More from Albert Beveridge
The Experiment, with its foundations laid on universal Suffrage and an unfettered and licentious Press is of too violent a nature for our excitable People.
These had power To charm through life and cheer his dying hour.
No man ever bore public honors with so meek a dignity ...
No! but snatched from time, To bloom afresh in yonder sphere sublime.
