" I must have recre- ation or I die," were his touching words ; and he was right. That cry of his burdened spirit might well move us both to admiration and to tears. God fitted him to bear his majestic work by giving him this love of humor which refreshed and reinvigorated his worn and jaded thought. The truest humor is often found in connection with the deepest seriousness in the history of literature and genius ; and those who moved men at one hour to laughter, at the next could melt them to ...tears. His sportiveness was on the surface, seen even by those who could see little else. The artist who painted his portrait in the picture of the Signing of the Proclamation, tells us of the habitual seriousness worn upon his features.
