Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Discourse, the Day After the Reception of the Tidings of the Assassination of President Lincoln: Preached in the South Congregational Church, Concord, N. H., April 16, 1865 "Then from that day forth they took counsel together for to put him to death." It is no new thing for the good to be hated, and to be martyred. Eighteen hundred years ago a Divine One walked the earth; yet he had bitter enemies, who foully plotted against his life; nor did their malice subside till their fiendish machinations were successful; with a traitor´s aid they compassed his death one Friday afternoon in April, or the month most nearly corresponding to it in the Jewish Calendar. That day has been remembered. A large part of the Christian world annually commemorate it with enjoined fastings and penitential sorrow. Day before yesterday was its anniversary; the day once made dark with the crucifixion. It is by a strange permission of Providence that henceforth the American mind will associate with Good Friday and its dying Lord, the death of our honored President. Providence has permitted the singular coincidence, sad and sacred. Nor was it any dishonor to thee. President Lincoln, to have fallen by the hand of such an assassin - the victim of such malice. The friendship of such men would have been a dishonor - men in whose hearts was still rampant the demon of secession and rebellion.
