Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Discourse, Delivered at Trinity Church, Boston, July 23, 1812: On the Day of Publick Fast in Massachusetts, Upon the Declaration of War Against Great-Britain I doubt not, my brethren, were the great majority of our fellow-citizens to speak their sentiments, their language individually would be that of the text: ´I am for peace.´ The greatest of national calamities has at length befallen us, and we are engaged, as the admirable proclamation of his Excellency expresses it, ´in war against the nation from which we are descended, and which for many generations has been the bulwark of the religion we profess.´ It is a war unexampled in the annals of the world, wantonly proclaimed on the most frivolous and groundless pretences, against a nation, from whose friendship we might derive the most signal advantages, and from whose hostility we have reason to dread the most tremendous losses. It is a war, entered into at a moment the most unpropitious, when we have neither army, nor navy, nor money, nor inclination, to flatter us with the remotest probability of success, and which must terminate in the disgrace of our arms, and possibly in the loss of our liberties.
