90. lappuse - Where may the wearied eye repose When gazing on the great; Where neither guilty glory glows, Nor despicable state ? Yes — one — the first — the last — the best— The Cincinnatus of the West, Whom envy dared not hate, Bequeathed the name of Washington, To make man blush there was but One !
122. lappuse - Great captains, with their guns and drums, Disturb our judgment for the hour, But at last silence comes ; These all are gone, and, standing like a tower, Our children shall behold his fame, The kindly-earnest, brave, foreseeing man, Sagacious, patient, dreading praise, not blame, New birth of our new soil, the first American.
154. lappuse - Scarce one tall frigate walks the sea Or skirts the safer shores Of all that bore to victory Our stout old commodores ; Hull, Bainbridge, Porter, — where are they? The...
240. lappuse - He was a beautiful, natural, original genius, and his life had been singularly exempt from worldly preoccupations and ' vulgar efforts. It had been as pure, as simple, as unsophisticated, as his work. He had lived primarily in his domestic affections, which were of the tenderest kind ; and then — without eagerness, without pretension, but with a great deal of quiet devotion — in his charming art. His work will remain ; it is too original and exquisite to pass away ; among the men of imagination...
123. lappuse - Here was place for no holiday magistrate, no fair-weather sailor ; the new pilot was hurried to the helm in a tornado. In four years, — four years of battle-days, — his endurance, his fertility of resources, his magnanimity, were sorely tried and never found wanting.
229. lappuse - The day is always his who works in it with serenity and great aims. The unstable estimates of men crowd to him whose mind is filled with a truth as the heaped waves of the Atlantic follow the moon.
130. lappuse - Of the three envoys [to France] the conduct of Marshall alone has been entirely satisfactory and ought to be marked by the most decided approbation of the public. He has raised the American people in their own esteem ; and if the influence of truth and justice, reason and argument, is not lost in Europe, he has raised the consideration of the United States in that quarter.
150. lappuse - I wish to express in this way my entire satisfaction with what you have done up to this time, so far as I understand it. The particulars of your plans I neither know nor seek to know. You are vigilant and self-reliant ; and; pleased with this, I wish not to obtrude any constraints or restraints upon you.
114. lappuse - I profess, sir, in my career hitherto to have kept steadily in view the prosperity and honor of the whole country and the preservation of our federal Union. It is to that Union we owe our safety at home and our consideration and dignity abroad. It is to that Union that we are chiefly indebted for whatever makes us most proud of our country. That Union we reached only by the discipline of our virtues in the severe school of adversity.
124. lappuse - Lincoln, receives the costly sacrifice to the Union ; the monument which will rise over his body will bear witness to the Union ; his enduring memory will assist during countless ages to bind the States together, and to incite to the love of our one undivided, indivisible country. Peace to the ashes of our departed friend, the friend of his country and of his race.
