Après moi le déluge, is not an elevated maxim; yet the only other principle upon which his mode of proceeding admits of explanation is, that he wrote his last works in the spirit of a soured and disappointed man, who had been in turn the betrayer and betrayed of every party with which he had been connected.
*Admits England's Cause Is Just.* But with all his will to "take the conceit" out of this England, so fiercely menaced, her sons killed, her daughters widowed yet needing, so he thinks, his castigation into the bargain the critic is constrained to admit that our country is playing the part of "the responsible policeman of the West" and that "for England to have refrained from hurling herself into the fray, horse, foot, and artillery, was impossible from every point of view."

When he steals another look at the elder Craig's face, he cannot see that there is anything like deep anger there, and yet John admits that he is not a good hand at analyzing motives. He dares not mention the matter himself, and is therefore bound to wait until his respected father speaks, if he does so at all.
He continued to kneel and pray with uplifted face to God, the just Judge. Hus was next charged with saying, "that he was and would be a Fourth Person in the Trinity." Even the Roman Catholic Hefele admits the absolute falsehood of this infamous accusation.
