Stran 341 - Thucydides and have studied and admired the master states of the world — that for solidity of reasoning, force of sagacity, and wisdom of conclusion, under such a complication of difficult circumstances, no nation or body of men can stand in preference to the general congress at Philadelphia.
Stran 382 - These abominable principles, and this more abominable avowal of them, demand the most decisive indignation.
