Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Eulogy on Daniel Webster: Delivered Before the Students of Bowdoin College, on Friday, Nov; 12th, 1852 Young Gentlemen of Bowdoin College: It seems to be a law of history, seldom set aside, that great men shall come and go, not singly, but in companies. Just as great mountains commonly stand in groups, or stretch in ranges. Just as the stars at night march over us in constellations. Sometimes it so happens, that this occasional advent of new greatness into the world is to several nations at once. Solomon, for example, mounted his father´s throne in Jerusalem while Minos was giving laws to Crete, while the Ionian settlements were planting themselves in Asia Minor, and Codrus had but recently inaugurated, by the baptism of his own blood, the independent and matchless career of Athens.
