'imoke, bidding defiance, and Llughs in scorn
.•t their frail attempts.
Was not the revolu tion in Philosophy due to his origin a lity?
In succession, Shakespeare, Milton and Sco:t
urge on the age to fi .!Ids of nobler senti•neA-ts,
.md show the m \SS of the p.! >pie wh ~ t man can
Jo when he strives with una'Jated energy. Man
;hould not believe th1t all things ar'! tru e ttll
~.)roven, he s:wulrl seek for himse lf, and try to
t!nlighten the world.
If th . th e ories of every
.;cience should continue to terr'ify th e s earcher
;o that he does not d .ue to think or act d 1ff..:rt!nt from the acc~pted opinions, however
enormous ; wh:tt will becom .! of learning if
some bold navigator does not steer us into a
11ew channel?
Let not popular fc:eling terrify · if they do
at first scorn and ridicule your works, do
not br! c!isheartened, but fol ow the 61Kiimple
of other great writen; fur th e ir bt, at first,
seemed defeat, and you will ovt!rcom e all ob stacles and pass in saf..:ty the yawning ch~sm
unharmed.
Originality is not confined by boundari es,
but extends over every p..trt of the broad fidds
of learning, at one time centere d in a novelist,
who charms his readers by his rar.y and moral
sentiments, adJressing th e ir b ett t: r natur .!S
and lifting their brutal and deprJ.ved inclinations to a pure and christian state, proof
against all vices.
•
Now, centered in a religious write:-, whose
pure heart evil shuns to enter . hi :; blessed words
come to us to soothe our f.tllen hopes ; they
penetrate our being, gaining ground step by
step, till at last despair defc!ated, leaves for
other victims, and we begin h..Lppy and trustful to work with newborn hopes.
