Here we could see the King of France upbraiding his Neighbours with dishonourably assisting his Rebels, though the Mischief was, they did it not neither; and in the same Breath, assisting the Hungarian Rebels against the Emperor; M. Ld N. refusing so dishonourable an Action, as to aid the Rebellious Camisars, but Leaguing with the Admirant de Castile, to Invade the Dominions of his Master to whom he swore Allegiance: Here we saw Protestants fight against Protestants, to help Papists, Papists against Papists to help Protestants, Protestants call in Turks, to keep Faith against Christians that break it: Here we could see Swedes fighting for Revenge, and call it Religion; Cardinals deposing their Catholick Prince, to introduce the Tyranny of a Lutheran and call it Liberty; Armies Electing Kings, and call it Free Choice; French conquering Savoy, to secure the Liberty of Italy.
Prétendu Connoiseur qui sur l'Antique glose, Idolatrant le hom, sans connoitre la Chose, Vrai Peste des beaux Arts, sans Gout sans Equité, Quitez ce ton pedant, ce mépris affecté, Pour tout ce que le Tems n'a pas encore gaté. Ne peus tu pas, en admirant Les Maitres de la Grece, ceux d l'Italie Rendre justice également A ceux qu'a nourris ta Patrie?
We hear it said, both of Tennyson and another current leading literary illustrator of Great Britain, Carlyle as of Victor Hugo in France that not one of them is personally friendly or admirant toward America; indeed, quite the reverse. N'importe. But we can by no means afford to be oblivious of them. The same of feudalism, its castles, courts, etiquettes, personalities.
