Excerpt from Education and Literature in Virginia: An Address Delivered Before the Literary Societies of Washington College, Lexington, Virginia, 18 June, 1850But, gentlemen, let us submit to the decree of the Most High, who orders all things well, however bitter the pang it may cost us. Let us take to heart, while we weep above the bier of the departed, the lesson we are so impressively taught in his early death, let us feel that Time, as he carries us along, is mindful of his scythe as well as of his glass, and let us recognize, with melancholy conviction, how ¿eeting and unsubstantial are the phantoms we have followed with our love.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
