Conduct
VIII. Jeopardy
The people are
inexcusably if they
suffer such
to remain
unredressed.
If Parliament and people the good people of this realm which so happily for
us all can not now be comprehended by any name
so short as Puritan,—if with the picture no spread
at out before them us, they we should be are content to sit still
and see so large a portion of ourselves themselves crouching
under a perpetual yoke of tyranny disposition and injustice and oppression
—if on of their having been once being delinquents, we forget
that they are men—if we continue to behold with
indifference the sufferings of those, whose lot misfortune
rather than any thing else has thrown at so great a has so widely distinguished
distance from that of their fellow men if with
such a call from sympathy as deliver us up to
the suggestions of a blind and unfailing selfishness
the oppressions we are content to see exercised in
others will one day be brought home to ourselves,
and we shall as surely be bereft find ourselves
bereft stript of those distinctions we are so careless of, as
we shall richly deserve merit it.
On this head, what of old was delivered was given as a lesson of
charity, may without any pretence to inspiration more than ordinary
wisdom be given improved/translated into as to of political prudence. That ye Of those
that those eighteen in whom the lover of Siloam fell, was
"and slew them think ye that they were sinners above all that
"dwelt in Jerusalem?
"I tell you, but for unless you repent, ye shall all
likewise perish."+1 So this, which were it ever conveyd
through so undefying a article as that of a Sunday
newspaper I would take upon me venture to recommend, as not unworthy
of the notice even of Lord Belgrave.+2
