AMERICAN STATE

PAPERS

'Tis Liberty alone that gives the flower
Of fleeting life its luster and perfume;
And we are weeds without it. All constraint
Except what wisdom lays on evil men,
Is evil: hurts the faculties, impedes
Their progress in the road of science, blinds
The eyesight of discovery; and begets,

In those that suffer it, a sordid mind,
Bestial, a meager intellect, unfit

To be the tenant of man's noble form."

- Cowper.
