I suggest it, and perhaps the Senator from Rhode Island will agree to it.
Стр. 116 - ... tells me I may do, but what humanity, reason, and justice tell me I ought to do. Is a politic act the worse for being a generous one? Is no concession proper but that which is made from your want of right to keep what you grant ?
