This, Sir, is an abstract of the gentleman's history of Federalism. I am not about to controvert it. It is not, at present, worth the pains of refutation; because, Sir, if at this day any one feels the sin of Federalism lying heavily on his conscience, he can easily procure remission. He may even obtain an indulgence, if he be desirous of repeating the same transgression.
In the course of time the Jews became so used to it that the change for the European dress appeared to them almost a transgression of some religious injunction.

This was that they might be the better enabled to do the works of repentance during the time allowed, and thus make atonement, and thus finish the transgression, and make an end of sins, and make reconciliation for iniquity; and thus, at the end of the time assigned, even seventy weeks, they would bring in everlasting righteousness, i.e., universal virtue and felicity, throughout the world, when the Eternal should be known, worshipped, and obeyed by all mankind.

What man endowed with reason will not pronounce thine act a transgression, a signal and sinful injustice? The voice of the pope was choked by tears, and in the excess of his grief he sank back upon the chair and leaned his head upon his hand. The emperor had listened with profound indifference.
With the disappearance of the idea of sin as a transgression of the divine law, the correlated idea of holiness also disappears from the system of ethical naturalism.
All the rest were restrictive; to curb this appetite, to bar that passion, to hedge this impulse, to check that disposition; in a word, to hold back the hand from open and positive transgression. Even the first, relating to His own Godhead and requirements, was but the first of the series of negatives, a pure and simple prohibition of idolatry.

And if it had not been a Wakes girl if the reprobate had only selected for his guilty amours an actress from one of the touring companies, or even a star from the Hanbridge Empire yea, or even a local barmaid! But a Wakes girl! Ellis himself saw the enormity of his transgression.
