For Oriental
nations no
obsequiousness
undue
Go back in the field of place. Turn to find any of
the Mahometan — to any of those called Oriental nations.
In these countries — under these governments — tho between
the highest and the lowest state the distance in infinite
degrees not enormous; but the distance between from degree and degree
enormous. There unless in so far as inhibited by probity
no obsequiousness is undue. To how low so ever a pitch
carried, self-abasement is self-preservation. Carried to whatsoever
excess servility is but conformity to the law of
prudence.
