The whole investigation was in keeping with the spirit evinced by the bench. The witnesses seemed to come for the special purpose of swearing point-blank against the hapless men in the dock, no matter at what cost to truth, and to take a fiendish pleasure in assisting in securing their condemnation.
A man must look upon other men as having souls of eternal value. Application of the Law. The beauty of this law of love is that it may be universally applied. There is no condition of man that it cannot meet and satisfy. The crying wrongs of the home, society, the industrial world, the state, arise out of its neglect and condemnation.
Or, if not ignorant, but only "hating knowledge," and "not choosing the fear of the Lord," their condemnation is, that they preferred the darkness to the light, because their deeds were evil? Are these sources of evidence not sufficient wherewith to determine, to the conviction of the universe, each man's character at the judgment of the great day?
Up to this time, an understanding had always subsisted between them that had never taken form in words, and yet that had scarcely in a single case been infringed, that neither should ever praise one of their children for anything that the other thought blameworthy, and vice versa. But in this night, her husband had followed up her severest condemnation by passionately embracing the wrong-doer.
A quarter of an hour passed. Benedetto, shivering, his heart in a tumult, his head on fire, excited and exhausted by fever, had once more sunk upon his chair, while the most disconnected thoughts whirled through his brain. May God forgive this man! Forgive them all! What joy if the Pontiff should forbid the condemnation of Selva! How does the person who may not write to me know?

The moral philosophy of Abelard is very elevated and pure.
When the trial for murder had ended in condemnation, Ralph and Sim were removed from the bar, not to the common gaol from whence they came, but to the castle, and were there committed to a pestilential dungeon under the keep. This dungeon was known as Doomsdale. It was indeed a "seminary of every vice and of every disease."
It will thus be seen that the human heart is ever the same, and among college students there is small choice. The following Sunday Luther devoted his whole sermon to a vigorous condemnation of the act of his students, admonishing them in stern rebuke. The sermon was considered the biggest joke of the season. Tetzel seemed to sink out of sight.
If, instead of puzzling themselves in the depths of the Divine counsels, they would turn to the mild morality of the Gospel, they would read their own condemnation: O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt because thou desiredst me: shouldest not thou also have compassion on thy fellow-servant, even as I had pity on thee?
'They will keep each other company. And she interlined and initiated the condemnation of Doctor Gotthold. 'Your Highness has more memory than your servant, said the Baron; and then he, in his turn, carefully perused the fateful paper. 'Good! said he. 'You will appear in the drawing-room, Baron? she asked. 'I thought it better, said he, 'to avoid the possibility of a public affront.
