More than heart could wish. _Ps._ LXXIII., 7
When he tackles a job he tackles it vigorously
Why not keep the same steadfast eye on realities
I am setting forth the rationale of things
I am trying to exhort you to an unwavering belief
I want to press the thought with all the earnestness I have
Would that I could persuade some who are halting between two opinions
I was shown how erroneous was my preconception
We shall make a great mistake if we allow an easy optimism to encourage the belief that——
He is laboring under the false notion that——
He would kill the goose that lays the golden egg
I always entertained the very highest regard for——
I was full of admiration for the way in which——
He is winning golden opinions from all sides
If I were a Pagan I would raise altars to him
The futility of such double-dealing was seen in——
He is infected with the disease of indirection
A responsibility he is in no way prepared to assume
The trick of turning a blind eye on the shortcomings of——
I feel myself forced to feign a particular interest in——
I am thankful to be furnished with so good a pretense
He has apparently lost his grip by wobbling
I haven’t sufficient information to pass judgment upon it
It is hardly the language of strict propriety
I have such lamentable proofs every day before my eyes of the——
I have no less authority for the statement than——
He has dealings with the prince of darkness
An inspiration coming otherwheres than from heaven
From the harshest brutality to the lowest shade of petty meanness
In wanton defiance of every law of God and man
He made as much of his facts as they would carry
He sees a glow-worm and thinks it a conflagration
It calls for talents of rather an unusual order
He hopes to ride safely into the harbor of——
The net effort seems to warrant the hope that——
We are enabled to look beyond the mists which fill the valley
In the happy and beautiful millennial time when——
It is the expression of a glorious fact that——
Of value to those who have eyes to see its significance
He is utterly heedless of the teachings of experience
This has been convincingly demonstrated in the past
Proof has been furnished with painful frequency
A testimony which is conclusive to all fair-minded men
He is headed straight for the auctioneer’s block
