His imagination might have made him one of the first of poets. [30] He was not profuse in metaphors or other figures of speech, but when he did use them, they were exquisitely conceived. His clearness of thought and expression was transparency itself I do not remember to have met with an obscure passage in any of my reading. He looked straight through the subject in hand, and made his hearers do the same. His logic was so close and cogent, that it approached the conclusiveness of mathematical d...emonstration. If you would assail him any where, it must be in his premises ; grant these and you gave up the argument. He very seldom resorted to sarcasm or invective, but when he did, it was withering. To low personal abuse he could not stoop. He always respected himself, whatever he might think of his opponent; and there was too much vigor in his bow to require any venom in the shaft. For this reason, and because of the entire absence of every thing like slang or vulgar wit, he was not a very popular stump orator.
