More from Orange Jacobs
He spoke in eloquent terms of the sacred walls within which poets, philosophers, statesmen, lawyers, great divines and warriors, if not born, received their inspiration and were qualified for their grand missions.
This is particularly true of speeches founded on a dreary array of facts and statistics.
The matter is well considered and in most cases clearly stated; but the delivery is often dull, listless and without animation.
As time advances and light and knowledge increase, the dead and useless branches are pruned off and the fit and vigorous remain to blossom and bear fruit.
