More from Charles Sumner
Men are erring and mortal; principles are steadfast and immortal.
The devices of party can no longer stave it off.
The most distant are not without a present influence on our daily lives.
Above all, welcome to the united regenerated Democracy of the North, which spurns the mockery of a Republic, with professions of Freedom on the lips, while the chains of Slavery clank in the Capitol!
