More from Charles Sumner
They who strive after it, Ixion-like, embrace a cloud.
It applies an arrogant and unrelenting ostracism to all who express themselves against Slavery.
Let loyalty to one man be exchanged for Love to Man.
Let us at all hazards prevent the extension of Slavery and the increase of the Slave Power.
