The great service of the Puritan in the second epoch was the appeal to this conscience which prepared it for the conflict. Its key-note was the immortal declaration of Garrison, in which the trumpet-voice of the spirit that has made New England rang out once more, clear and unmistakable, awaking at last the reluctant echoes of the continent, " I am in earnest ; I will not equiv ocate, I will not excuse, I will not retreat a single inch, and I will be heard. " There were other voices, indeed, vo...ices everywhere, harmonious and historic voices, swelling the chorus ; but chiefly from New England came the moral appeal, penetrating and persistent, dis daining political argument and party alliance an ap peal which, with all the ancient fervor of the Puritan faith, spurning every friendly remonstrance, every plea of prudence, every prophecy of disaster, and every form THE PURITAN SPIRIT 389 of obloquy and malignant enmity, urged upon every citizen the personal guilt of complicity with national wrong, and by its divine logic inexorably forced parties to the true issue, moulding our politics anew ; and when debate ended, the same spirit, irradiating the embattled cause of the Union, of the national pride, of the honor of the flag, with the glory of the old and eternal Puritan principle of human liberty and equal rights, threw its veil of light over our shame and our sorrow and our long sectional alienation.
