You who were companions of my childhood are revilers of my manhood; you have robbed me of my good name and my honour, of my ship, of my very means of livelihood, and you are not content; you would rob me of my country, which I hold dearer than all. And I have never done you evil, nor spoken aught against you.
Silent, grim, colossal, the big city has ever stood against its revilers. They call it hard as iron; they say that no pulse of pity beats in its bosom; they compare its streets with lonely forests and deserts of lava. But beneath the hard crust of the lobster is found a delectable and luscious food. Perhaps a different simile would have been wiser. Still, nobody should take offence.
As the sensible author of the Government of the Tongue says, 'Half-witted people are always the bitterest revilers." Irishman. "You are very indulgent, gentlemen; but in spite of all your politeness, you must allow, or, at least, I must confess, that there are little defects in the Irish government of the tongue at which even whole-witted people must laugh." Scotchman.
The public mind became poisoned; suspicions were engendered; his revilers were cherished; the few stout hearts that confided in his political integrity, and nobly clustered around him, were anathematized and proscribed. The mercenary, the selfish, and the timid united in the cry down with him.
Wedded to vanity, power, pride, lust and wrath, these revilers hate Me in their own bodies and those of others. Coming into demoniac wombs, deluded birth after birth, they, O son of Kunti, without attaining to Me go down to the vilest state. Three-fold is the way to hell, ruinous to the self, viz., lust, wrath, likewise avarice. Therefore, these three, one should renounce.
Slander and dollars are the wheels on which moves the propaganda that would substitute Gospel Christianity for the superstitions of Rome. It is slander that vilifies in convention and synod the friars who did more for pure Christianity in the Philippines in a hundred years than the whole nest of their revilers will do in ten thousand.
The Lord is on the side of the just, as well as agin all slanderers and revilers." Altascar but half guessed the meaning of the Missourian, yet sufficiently to drive from his mind all but the extravagant power of his native invective. "Stealer of the sacrament! Open not! open not, I say, your lying Judas lips to me! Ah! half-breed, with the soul of a coyote! Car-r-r- ramba!"
One king nay, one minister or counsellor of state imbued with her precepts is of more value than all the speculative, retired philosophers or cynical revilers of princes and magistrates that ever lived upon earth. Diogenes. Don't tell me of the music of Orpheus, and of his taming wild beasts.
His spirits during those few days were colossal, and he told me that he found it impossible to sleep, "for counting up his subscribers." With first-class contributors he got on very well, he said, but the extortioners and revilers bothered the very life out of him.
Whatever may say its revilers, this Congress will have a noble and pure page in American history. I speak of the majority. The Congress showed energy, clear and broad comprehension and appreciation of the events and of men.
