Excerpt from Philadelphia and Rome
In vain the forces of Nature resist man; they are obliged to yield to the exigencies of his Liberty.
It is in response to these exigencies, that to the isolation of Nations, now succeeds Union.
Notwithstanding the barriers which yet separate them the nations grasp hands and recognise in each other the members of one common family.
