Sinopsis

Excerpt from Daniel O'connell: A Lecture

Mr. Froude tells us that the wickedness Of a nation was certain to be punished, no matter how long Providence delayed. He said that the wickedness of one generation would assuredly be met by the weak ness of another, if there were a half a dozen between them. Great Britain has held the poisoned chalice to the lips of her sister island for seven hundred years - poisoned by religious hate by the contempt Of the Saxon race by the injustice Of the most heartless government that ever disgraced civilized Europe - and to-day, in the Providence Of God, Ireland holds back that chalice to her own lips, and in the weakness she cannot deny, and which her scholars come to us to explain as some thing inevitable, and what they could not have avoided.

Excerpt from Daniel O'connell: A Lecture

Ladies and Gentlemen, - I am to talk to you of o'connell - Daniel o'connel!, the champion of Irish Catholic citizenship, and the great example of modern agitation. I originally chose o'connell as the sub jaet of a Lyceum lecture because he represented, better than any other 'man of the century, this modern element in constitutional government agitation. You know Sir Robert, Peel defined agitation to be the marshaling of the conscience of a. Nation to mould its laws and ap peal to the thought and the principle of a community to reach indi rectly its ballot-bearing classes. It is an old word this, with a new meaning, and it plays a large part in the constitutional progress of the English race. You may trace it, indeed, back to the days of Cromwell and the pamphlets of the civil war that formed the library of George III., and you can follow it down through the age of De Foe, the author of Robinson Crusoe, the first great Englishman since the Re bellion that flung a pamphlet at that little coterie of first cousins that used to be called the House of Commons, and then in a narrow and to a certain extent a superficial example, you may find it in Wilberforce, who, over Parliament, and in despite of Parliament, by leaning back on the religious purpose of Great Britain, broke three millions of chains, and went up to God, as Lamartine says, with eight hundred thousand broken fetters in his hands, as an evidence of a life well spent.

But this was a superficial, and, to a certain extent, a limited example.
