More from Charles Sumner
Controlled by such a code, employing such representatives, sustained by such agencies, animated by such Furies, and producing such fruits of tears and bitterness, it must be open to question.
The most distant are not without a present influence on our daily lives.
The devices of party can no longer stave it off.
Men are erring and mortal; principles are steadfast and immortal.
