To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Men's minds are stirred up, tortured, uneasy, as long as the guilty one is not put back in his place, as the strong, healthy, colloquial expression has it. To put men and things back in their places is to re- establish order, readjust the balance, and restore peace on a just basis. ^ Public retribution in this sense may distress the affected sentimentality of a weak nature; all the same, it is, says St. Thomas, the expres- sion and the decree of the highest, the purest form of charity, and of t...he zeal which is its flame. It does not make a target of suffering, but a weapon wherewith to avenge outraged justice. How can one love order without hating dis- order; intelligently wish for peace without ex- pelling that which is destroying it; love a brother, that is to say wish him well, without desiring that willingly, or by force, his will shall bend be- fore the unalterable edicts of justice and truth? It is from these heights that one must view the war in order to understand the greatness of its extent.
