They are so utterly unaware of the mischief they are doing. They would recoil with horror if they were told they were so many Iscariots, betraying Truth with a kiss. But science, as yet, has withstood both terrors and blandishments. In old times she endured being imprisoned and slain. She came to life again. Perhaps it was the will of Him in whom all things live, that she should live.
Of course, we shall not convert ourselves into a nation of Iscariots, and give over civilization to the bowie-knife, with the mere hope of so making money out of Southern trade, which we should not do, and with the certainty of a gibbet in history, to mention no greater penalty. But refusing this perfidy, could we have avoided this war?
I'd hurl the lie in the teeth of a scoffing world I'd show all nations o' time that the people, the plain common good people, can keep the law sound as the Ark o' the Covenant of God; and and I'd hurl y'r traitor leaders y'r Judas Iscariots huckstering the land's good for paltry silver I'd hurl y'r grafters an' y'r heelers an' y'r bosses an' y'r strumpet justices, who sell a verdict like a harlot, I'd hurl them to the bottom of Hell!

Of course, there are a lot of Judas Iscariots about for whom I shouldn't imagine the devil himself has much time, though I suppose we ought not to judge 'em, but there are also a lot of fine fellows and fine women.

Lately, however, Picault's corruptionists, whom we thought crushed, have made another assault for the moneys, bullied, lied, and bribed, weighed their silver to the Iscariots, and edged Genest out of his seat." "Who is their man here?" "Libergent, lawyer.
Elements of barbarism had run uncurbed alongside of intellectual and artistic refinements. Mingled with high-minded heroes were a set of treacherous Iscariots. But why, it will naturally be asked, had there not been hitherto some outbreak of these discordant elements?
I had given one of our enemies a drubbing which he would not forget in a hurry. Yet the one fact remains. At the time I left the camp there were several of these whimpering, cold-footed, British Judas Iscariots still drawing unblushingly their five shillings per week!
Marrier so ably says, it's all right. Now I understand if I go into this affair I can count on you absolutely, and also on Mr. Trent's services." He tried to talk as if he had been diplomatizing with actresses and poets all his life. "A absolutely!" said Rose. And Mr. Carlo Trent nodded. "You Iscariots!" Edward Henry addressed them, in the silence of the brain, behind his smile. "You Iscariots!"
