It derived a virtue from every field of struggle in Eiig?$ttd; iroiu eve*y scaflold hallowed by free ami consecrated blood; from every hour of great debate. It was only the complete development into law for a separated people of that august ancestral liberty, the eerms of which had pre ceded the Heptarchy, the gradual defiuitiou and estab lishment of which had been the glory of English his tory. A thousand years brooded over the room where they asserted hereditary rights. Its walls showed neith...er portraits nor mottoes ; but the Kaiser-saal at Frankfurt was not hung around with such recollections. No titles were worn by those plain men; but there had not been one knightly soldier or one patriotic and pres cient statesman, standing for liberty in the 1 splendid centuries of its English growth, who did not touch them with unseen accolade and bid them be faithful. The paper which they adopted, fresh from the pen of its young author, and written on his hired piue-table, was already, in essential life, of a venerable age; and it took immense impulse, it derived an instant and vast author ity from its relation to that undying past in which they too had grand inheritance, and from which their public life had come.
