Excerpt from The Principles and Maxims on Which the Security and Happiness of a Republic Depend: A Sermon, Delivered Before the Governor, the Lieutenant-Governor, the Council, and the Two Houses Composing the Legislature of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, May 29, 1811, Being the Day of General Election
As example is more forcible than precept, we have selected this passage of sacred history to introduce our discourse. Even when such a sublime character is but briefly pictured out, the imperfect portrait is still adapt ed to fill the mind with generous and noble ideas. We shall take occasion from the language uttered by this great and good man, to point out the duties and max ims, necessary to be observed by a free people, if they wish to continue a pure republic - such I mean, as was referred to by Gideon in his answer to the people of Israel; that is, the Almighty governing a nation. Through the medium and instrumentality of its best and wisest citizens.

Yet in our closing remarks on this subject, we shall take the liberty, from the present state of our nation, to describe the sacred and moral obligations, which bind both rulers and people, to forget party animosity tobe determined in the defence and salvation of their country; and to know and promote no other interest; than that which will perpetuate its liberties, and in crease its glory. The duties of the day demand some attention to topics of this sort; nor will he, whom you have made your organ, shrink back from the labor, though sensible that a subject lof this nature is extreme. 1y delicate, and however 'carefully touched, will scarce ly exempt innocence and circumspection from blame and censure. It is, in' a word, a theme (to borrow the language of the ancient poet) full of danger and accident, in its discussion you must tread over fires thinly covered with deceitful ashes.
