Opis

Excerpt from The Loyalists, Vol. 1 of 3: An Historical Novel Under the inżuence of these passions, how often has one restless spirit disturbed the repose of a prosperous nation, and Spread desolation and misery over the fairest portions of the globe. Does God permit this - and is he righteous? Yes, shortsighted questioner of Omniscience, the Father of the universe is never more conspicuous in his paternal care, than when, by means of temporal afflictions, he draws our regards toward our heavenly country. - Then is death disarmed of the terrors which are planted round the bed of prosperity; then is the soul freed from that bondage of sensual de light, which impedes her spiritual exer tion. The no longer pampered body, subdued to spareness, braced by toil, elastic from exertion, and patient from habit, is not a clog, but a meet compa nion for its immortal associate. Prosperity, among many other evils, ens genders religious apathy, and luxurious selfishness. She presents a gorgeous stage, on which the puppets of vanity and petty ambition act their insignificant parts; adversity educates and exercises men.
