More from Charles Sumner
Let us at all hazards prevent the extension of Slavery and the increase of the Slave Power.
Far above any flickering light or battle-lantern of party is the everlasting sun of Truth, in whose beams are the duties of men.
Nor should we be too impatient to witness the fulfilment of our aspirations.
Let loyalty to one man be exchanged for Love to Man.
