Belgium has been crushed between the Alliance and the Entente: it was these two menaces to the peace of Europe that produced Armageddon; and as Belgium's heroic resistance served the Entente against the Alliance, the obligation to make good the remediable damage is even more binding on the Entente. But there is another and more pressing matter arising out of the conquest of Belgium.
The ignorant must feel and suffer from their complexity as well as the wisest; but to them the pain of struggle and defeat appears strange, mysterious, remediable and unjust. He stood watching her, watching himself. He tingled with rage from head to foot, as if he had been struck in the face. Suddenly he laughed; but his laugh was like a distorted echo of some insincere mirth very far away.
There is nothing so remediable as the work of modern man "a thought which is also," as Mr Pecksniff said, "very soothing." And by remediable I mean, of course, destructible.
No turn of fortune, no evil fate, but God's check upon an army enlisted in His name yet not serving Him with a true heart, was this momentary downfall; the cause of which was one that every man could remove in his degree; not inherent weakness or hopeless fate, but a matter remediable, nay, which must be remedied and cast from among them a matter which might quench their personal hopes and destroy them, but could not affect the divine cause, which should surely, triumph whatever man or Satan might do.
But we abhor it not only because of these its results, nor with a hatred which would be withdrawn, were they disputable now or remediable hereafter. We abhor Slavery for itself, and for its own enormous iniquity, even the robbing from a human being of that freedom which it was the supreme gift of Omnipotence to bestow.
Repentance is the conscious recognition of some culmination of this obscure process, when the heart is suffused with the inner gladness of liberation from the payment of old karmic debts. Christ's words, "Thy sins are forgiven," spoken to the woman who washed his feet with her tears, sanctions this idea that the past is remediable by knowledge and by love.
And the school knows, too, the preventive and remediable natures of these defects. Possessing all this knowledge, why has it not acted? To make a long story short, it has acted. To the extent of its authority and with all the influence and power at its command it has acted, has been acting for many years, and is still acting.
"That's where the girl's infernal insolence comes in." I read: "This obstacle, though under the present circumstances an absolute bar, is fortunately remedial." "I wish Lalage would be more careful," I said, "she ought to have written 'remediable. However her meaning is quite plain." "It gets plainer further on," said Thormanby grinning.
His Lordship remarked that he should deeply lament the abolition of a college "of which the defects would appear so remediable, and of which it does not seem easy to exaggerate the benefits."
When I said I thought I could bear to survive him, how little I knew of myself, and how little, how very little I expected to be so soon tried! All evils are remediable but one, that one which I dare not name. The physicians assure me that he is better. His friend, to whose judgment I trust more, thinks as they do. I know not what to believe.
