The piety of our ancestors contemplated the justice and mercy of God as manifested in the counsels of eternity, his righteous condemnation of the wicked, and the love-inspired sacrifice of Christ. The philosophy of our ancestors was largely an attempt to map out a world-scheme from man's inner consciousness.
When such words can be truthfully written of a nation, that nation is rotten to the heart's core. When men fear work or fear righteous war, when women fear motherhood, they tremble on the brink of doom; and well it is that they should vanish from the earth, where they are fit subjects for the scorn of all men and women who are themselves strong and brave and high-minded.
I'm getting close on two pounds a week now, and you can see for yourselves that that's a good pile." "Bless us!" said Grannie, "it's a powerful heap of money." "Well, I'm getting that," said Jim, with a sort of righteous pride on his face, "and no one who knows what's what could complain of the same. Now, this is what I'm thinking.
Yet he filled their houses with good things: but the counsel of the wicked is far from me. The righteous see it, and are glad: and the innocent laugh them to scorn.

Thou art not recognised here, go and fall down." Even thus the celestial messenger spoke unto him. Nahusha's son then said, repeating the words three times, "If fall I must, let me fall amongst the righteous." And saying this, that foremost of persons that had won high regions by their acts, began to think of the particular region whereon he should fall.

If they've had a long record of conquest and bloodshed, they say so with plenty of chest pounding. Of course, it's padded out to reflect their righteous conquest over tyranny, but it's always there in some form.
