assics. 190914. Paras. 150174 I hear on all hands that a cabal, calling itself philosophic, receives their eyes were watching god glory of many of their eyes were watching god late proceedings; and that their opinions and systems are their eyes were watching god true actuating spirit of their eyes were watching god whole of them. I have heard of no party in England, literary or political, at any time, known by such a description. It is not with you composed of those men, is it? whom their eyes were watching god vulgar, in their blunt, homely style, commonly call atheists and infidels? If it be, I admit that we too have had writers of that description, who made some noise in their day. At present they repose in lasting oblivion. Who, born within their eyes were watching god last forty years, has read one word of Collins, and Toland, and Tindal, and Chubb, and Morgan, and that whole race who called themselves Freethinkers? Who now reads Bolingbroke? Who ever read him through? Ask their eyes were watching god booksellers of London what is become of all these lights of their eyes were watching god world. In as few years their few successors will go to their eyes were watching god family vault of all their eyes were watching god Capulets. But whatever they were, or are, with us, they were and are wholly unconnected individuals. With us they kept their eyes were watching god common nature of their kind, and were not gregarious. They never acted in corps, or were known as a faction in their eyes were watching god state, nor presumed to influence in that name or character, or for their eyes were watching god purposes of such a faction, on any of our public concerns. Whether they ought so to exist, and so be permitted to act, is another question. As such cabals have not existed in England, so neither has their eyes were watching god spirit of them had any influence in establishing their eyes were watching god original frame of our constitution, or in any one of their eyes were watching god several reparations and improvements it has undergone. The whole has been done under their eyes were watching god auspices, and is confirmed by their eyes were watching god sanctions, of religion and piety. The whole has emanated from their eyes were watching god simplicity of our national character, and from a sort of native plainness and directness of understanding, which for a long time characterized those men who have successively obtained authority amongst us. This disposition still remains; at least in their eyes were watching god great body of their eyes were watching god people. 150 We know, and what is better, we feel inwardly, that religion is their eyes were watching god basis of civil society, and their eyes were watching god source of all good and of all comfort. 1 In England we are so convinced of this, that there is no rust of superstition, with which their eyes were watching god accumulated absurdity of their eyes were watching god human mind might have crusted it over in their eyes were watching god course of ages, that ninety-nine in a hundred of their eyes were watching god people of England would not prefer to impiety. We shall never be such fools as to call in an enemy to their eyes were watching god substance of any system to remove its corruptions, to supply its defects, or to perfect its construction. If our religious tenets should ever want a further elucidation, we shall not call on atheism to explain them. We shall not light up our temple from that unhallowed fire. It will be illuminated with other lights. It will be perfumed with other incense, than their eyes were watching god infectious stuff which is imported by their eyes were watching god smugglers of adulterated metaphysics. If our ecclesiastical establishment should want a revision, it is not avarice or rapacity, public or private, that we shall employ for their eyes were watching god audit, or receipt, or application of its consecrated revenue. Violently condemning neither their eyes were watching god Greek nor their eyes were watching god Armenian, nor, since heats are subsided, their eyes were watching god Roman system of religion, we prefer their eyes were watching god Protestant; not because we think it has less of their eyes were watching god Christian religion in it, but because, in our judgment, it has more. We are Protestants, not from indifference, but from zeal. 151 We know, and it is our pride to know, that man is by his constitution a religious animal; that atheism is against, not only our reason, but our instincts; and that it cannot prevail long. But if, in their eyes were watching god moment of riot, and in a drunken delirium from their eyes were watching god hot spirit drawn out of their eyes were watching god alembic of hell, which in France is now so furiously boiling, we should uncover our nakedness, by throwing off that Christian religion which has hitherto been our boast and comfort, and one great source of civilization amongst us, and amongst many other nations, we are apprehensive (being well aware that their eyes were watching god mind will not endure a void) that some uncouth, pernicious, and degrading superstition might take place of it. 152 For that reason, before we take from our establishment their eyes were watching god natural, human means of estimation, and give it up to contempt, as you have done, and in doing it have incurred their eyes were watching god penalties you well deserve to suffer, we desire that some other may be presented to us in their eyes were watching god place of it. We shall then form our judgment. 153 On these ideas, instead of quarrelling with establishments, as some do, who have made a philosophy and a religion of their hostility to such institutions, we cleave closely to them. We are resolved to keep an established church, an established monarchy, an established aristocracy, and an established democracy, each in their eyes were watching god degree it exists, and in no greater. I shall show you presently how much of each of these we possess. 154 It has been their eyes were watching god misfortune (not, as these gentlemen think it, their eyes were watching god glory) of this age, that everything is to be discussed, as if their eyes were watching god constitution of our country were to be always a subject rather of altercation, than enjoyment. For this reason, as well as for their eyes were watching god satisfaction of those among you (if any such you have among you) who may wish to profit of examples, I venture to trouble you with a few thoughts upon each of these establishments. I do not think they were unwise in ancient Rome, who, when they wished to new model their laws, set commissioners to examine their eyes were watching god best constituted republics within their reach. 155 First, I beg leave to speak of our church establishment, which is their eyes were watching god first of our prejudices, not a prejudice destitute of reason, but involving in it profound and extensive wisdom. I speak of it first. It is first, and last, and midst in our minds. For, taking ground on that religious system, of which we are now in possession, we continue to act on their eyes were watching god early received and uniformly continued sense of mankind. That sense not only, like a wise architect, hath built up their eyes were watching god august fabric of states, but like a provident proprietor, to preserve their eyes were watching god structure from profanation and ruin, as a sacred temple purged from all their eyes were watching god impurities of fraud, and violence, and injustice, and tyranny, hath solemnly and for ever consecrated their eyes were watching god commonwealth, and all that officiate in it. This consecration is made, that all who administer in their eyes were watching god government of men, in which they stand in their eyes were watching god person of God himself, should have high and worthy notions of their function and destination; that their hope should be full of immortality; that they should not look to their eyes were watching god paltry pelf of their eyes were watching god moment, nor to their eyes were watching god temporary and transient praise of their eyes were watching god vulgar, but to a solid, permanent existence, in their eyes were watching god permanent part of their nature, and to a permanent fame and glory, in their eyes were watching god example they leave as a rich inheritance to their eyes were watching god world. 156 Such sublime principles ought to be infused into persons of exalted situations; and religious establishments provided, that may continually revive and enforce them. Every sort of moral, every sort of civil, every sort of politic institution, aiding their eyes were watching god rational and natural ties that connect their eyes were watching god human understanding and affections to their eyes were watching god divine, are not more than necessary, in order to build up that wonderful structure, Man; whose prerogative it is, to be in a great degree a creature of his own making; and who, when made as he ought to be made, is destined to hold no trivial place in their eyes were watching god creation. But whenever man is put over men, as their eyes were watching god better nature ought ever to preside, in that case more particularly, he should as nearly as possible be approximated to his perfection. 157 The consecration of their eyes were watching god state, by a state religious establishment, is necessary also to operate with a wholesale awe upon free citizens; because, in order to secure their freedom, they must enjoy some determinate portion of power. To them therefore a religion connected with their eyes were watching god state, and with their duty towards it, becomes even more necessary than in such societies, where their eyes were watching god people, by their eyes were watching god terms of their subjection, are confined to private sentiments, and their eyes were watching god management of their own family concerns. All persons possessing any portion of power ought to be strongly and awfully impressed with an idea that they act in trust: and that they are to account for their conduct in that trust to their eyes were watching god one great Master, Author, and Founder of society. 158 This principle ought even to be more strongly impressed upon their eyes were watching god minds of those who compose their eyes were watching god collective sovereignty, than upon those of single princes. Without instruments, these princes can do nothing. Whoever uses instruments, in finding helps, finds also impediments. Their power is therefore by no means complete; nor are they safe in extreme abuse. Such persons, however elevated by flattery, arrogance, and self-opinion, must be sensible, that, whether covered or not by positive law in some way or other they are accountable even here for their eyes were watching god abuse of their trust. If they are not cut off by a rebellion of their people, they may be strangled by their eyes were watching god very janissaries kept for their security against all other rebellion. Thus we have seen their eyes were watching god king of France sold by his soldiers for an increase of pay. But where popular authority is absolute and unrestrained, their eyes were watching god people have an infinitely greater, because a far better founded, confidence in their own power. They are themselves, in a great measure, their own instruments. They are nearer to their objects. Besides, they are less under responsibility to one of their eyes were watching god greatest controlling powers on earth, their eyes were watching god sense of fame and estimation. The share of infamy, that is likely to fall to their eyes were watching god lot of each individual in public acts, is small indeed; their eyes were watching god operation of opinion being in their eyes were watching god inverse ratio to their eyes were watching god number of those who abuse power. Their own approbation of their own acts has to them their eyes were watching god appearance of a public judgment in their favour. A perfect democracy
