    I am giving you examples of the fact that this creature man, who
    in his own selfish affairs is a coward to the backbone, will
    fight for an idea like a hero. . . . I tell you, gentlemen, if
    you can shew a man a piece of what he now calls God's work to do,
    and what he will later call by many new names, you can make him
    entirely reckless of the consequences to himself personally.

The fiction pleased; our generous train complies,
Nor fraud mistrusts in virtue's fair disguise.
The work she read more

Nor fraud mistrusts in virtue's fair disguise.
The work she plyed, but, studious of delay,
Each following night reversed the toils of day.
