1 Mr. President, it is natural to man to indulge in the illusions of
hope. We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth, and
listen to the song of that siren till she transforms us into beasts. Is
this the part of wise men, engaged in a great and arduous
struggle for liberty? Are we disposed to be of the number of those
who, having eyes, see not, and, having ears, hear not, the things
which so nearly concern their temporal salvation? For my part,
whatever anguish of spirit it may cost, I am willing to know the
whole truth; to know the worst, and to provide for it.
2 I have but one lamp by which my feet are guided, and that is
the lamp of experience. I know of no way of judging of the future
but by the past
. And judging by the past, I wish to know what
there has been in the conduct of the British ministry for the last
ten years to justify those hopes with which gentlemen have been
pleased to solace themselves and the House. Is it that insidious
smile with which our petition has been lately received? Trust it
not, sir, it will prove a snare to your feet. Suffer not yourselves to
be betrayed with a kiss.
