To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The land cannot be cleansed 9 of the blood that is shed therein, but by the blood of him that shed it. So spake God to his people of old. Num. 35: 33 — Such is his express declaration and as being the ground of his penal laws respecting murder. But the power of the Civil Government may not be able to reach all that are equally guilty — though it may reach those guilty of the overt act — It may indeed reach the accomplices if known and found — but all aiders and abettors — equally criminal in po...int of law and fact, it may not be able to reach. Or as in the case before us — the nation itself as a whole being the party guilt}' — it will not purify the land of the blood shed — In either case, it becomes his work, from whom no secret is hid — and whose justice cannot be bribed, and will not always sleep — and from that justice, there is no escape. And as nations, or people, as such, have no eternity, they must of course meet the retributions of that Justice in time. When therefore our Lord said to his weeping followers — Weep uot for me — but weep for yourselves and for your children — he added, For behold the days are coming — aye coming, in the which — they — your children — shall say — blessed are the women, that never bare, and the breasts which never nursed — for then — in those days, shall they say to the mountains, fall on us — to the hills cover us — for if they do these things to the green tree — and such , the righteous one is — what shall be done to the dry?
