Observe what illustration it found in his action ; how continual, and how manifold. When he came into power the Nation was as a company lost in the woods ; with sudden gulfs sink- ing before it ; with stealthy robbei's lurking near ; with utter darkness overhead ; the sun gone down, the light of all the constellations quenched. No man knew certainly what to do, which way to turn, on whom to rely. There was danger in advancing, perhaps greater 47 in delay ; danger that everything precious might ...he lost ; danger, even, that the travelers themselves, in their dark fear and furious haste, might turn on each other with deadly blows. You remember what an infinite jargon of counsels, from all presses, forums, individual speakers, rent and vexed the gloomy air ; with what passionate eagerness the public sought on every side for some avenue of escape — urging the adoption of one course to day, and of another, its opposite, to-morrow. All voices sounded strange in the darkness ; all paths w^ere obliterated ; all bearings lost.
