Would you have me like the blind girls who go unknowing to the altar, as sheep go to the shambles? Could you suspect me of such carelessness? such culpable thoughtlessness? you, to whom I have spoken of all this so freely?" Alan stared at her, disconcerted, hardly knowing how to answer. "But what alternative do you propose, then?" he asked in his amazement. "Propose?"
The arguments are these. If it be in our power to act right, the contrary is equally in our own power; hence vice is as much voluntary as virtue. Man must be admitted to be the origin of his own actions. Legislators and others punish men for wickedness, and confer honour on good actions; even culpable ignorance and negligence are punished.
There, as at the factory, he could see himself arriving in poverty, as a needy tenant begging his landlord to repair a roof, in order that the rain might no longer pour down on the four children, whom, with culpable improvidence, he already had to provide for.
They both converge to the point that the objective to be achieved is not victory for the Entente belligerents but defeat for the German-Imperial coalition; that the peoples underlying the defeated governments are not to be dealt with as vanquished enemies but as fellows in undeserved misfortune brought on by their culpable masters; and that no advantage is designed to be taken of these peoples, and no gratuitous hardship to be imposed on them.
The anxiety of General Proctor to save the baggage waggons containing his own personal effects, had been productive of the most culpable delay, and at the moment when his little army should have been under cover of entrenchments, and in a position which offered a variety of natural defensive advantages, they found themselves suddenly overtaken by the enemy in the heart of a thick wood, where, fatigued by the long and tedious march they had made under circumstances of great privation, they had scarcely time to form in the irregular manner permitted by their broken position, before they found themselves attacked with great spirit, and on all sides by a force more than quadruple their own.
If there is an angel who records the sorrows of men as well as their sins, he knows how many and deep are the sorrows that spring from false ideas for which no man is culpable. Marner went home, and for a whole day sat alone, stunned by despair, without any impulse to go to Sarah and attempt to win her belief in his innocence.
He had arranged that I should not receive it until the evening of the day on which he died for me. He explained his pious falsehood; he had not seen King James." "He had not seen him!" exclaimed Angela. "No; all that he had said to me was false. So you can understand that I had reason to forever curse the culpable facility with which I had allowed myself to be persuaded.
They replied, because they were not culpable, and had no reason for avoiding a trial that would manifest their innocence. Their heroism was fatal. Their unfortunate mother is yet ignorant of their fate; but we left her in a state little preferable to that which will be the effect of certainty.
This, then, I hold to be demonstrated, that of all societies now existing, the Republic of the United States is by far the most culpable as respects slavery and the slave trade. Now then I come to the right honourable Baronet's Budget.
He frowned anxiously. "I never saw this young woman before," he admitted slowly. "Ha!" cried the chief, glad to find some one culpable. "Did you receive your invitation through the proper channels?" asked Hamilton. "I came here to-night," coldly, "on the invitation of Mrs. Hyphen-Bonds, who sailed for Europe Wednesday." Here was an alibi that was an alibi! I was all at sea.
