Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Address at the Union Memorial Services: Princeton, Mass;, September 25, 1881 My Friends: No nation, however favored, can escape its share of great and often bitter trial. Such are the dread seasons of war and tumult, or "When the seals That close the pestilence are broke, And crowded cities wail its stroke!" Such are the tidings of sudden disaster by fire or flood, appalling us by their terrors and appealing to our hearts and bands for relief, which, in America, is never sought in vain. Individuals likewise have their seasons of trials, the depressions of business, the drought bringing ruin to the husbandman, the tempest assailing the toilers of the sea, and then the saddest trials, common to us all, the hours which bring death to our beloved ones; these are, indeed, "the times that try men´s souls." And yet no sorrow, national or personal, can come in vain; some dross, at least, is consumed, some feelings must be purified by the fiery scourge of our afflictions.
