Stirring events andgreat names are still to come; the romantic enterprise of Cyrus and theretreat of the Ten Thousand, the elective trust of Thebes, and thechivalrous glories of her one great man. Demosthenes has yet to provehow vain is the divinest eloquence when poured to degenerate hearts. Agis and Cleomenes have yet to exhibit the spectacle, ever fraught withmelancholy interest, of noble natures out of harmony with the present, and spending their energies in the vain attempt to turn back th...e streamof time and call again into existence the feelings and the institutionsof an irrevocable past. The monarchy of Philip is yet due to fate. Macedon is still to Greece what Russia, before Peter the Great, was toEurope--a half-unknown and barbarous land, full of latent energy andpower, and waiting for the rise of a master mind to discern its embryogreatness and turn its peasants into the unconquerable phalanx. Alexander must arise to carry forth with his victorious arms the seedsof Greek civilization over the Eastern world.
