I regard myself pledged to this because my conception of true Democratic faith and public duty requires that this and all other statutes should be in good faith and without evasion enforced, and because in many utterances made prior to my election as President, approved by the party to which I belong, and which I have no disposition to disclaim, I have in effect promised the people that this should be done.
Seite 225 - Ah, sweet Content! where is thy mild abode ? Is it with shepherds, and light-hearted swains. Which sing upon the downs, and pipe abroad. Tending their flocks and cattle on the plains ? Ah, sweet Content ! where dost thou safely rest ? In Heaven, with Angels...
Seite 447 - The gentleman took it seriously, and it has given his strut additional pomposity. The resemblance is great. It is striking.
