"The truth is, society in the natural course of its growth reached a point that, if there were a long and costly war, there should be a national debt. " (2) Subject, the relation between the needs of the time and some such financial measure as the national debt. (3) Two long para- graphs by comparing England of the past with England of 1688. And by com- paring the country as a whole with the Continent. Macaulay proves the need of a national debt at that time. 139 8. Macaulay's Faults as an Expo...sitor — His Over-statement and Understatement. The subject of this treatise does not require us to go afield into a discussion of the historic truthfuhiess or untruthfuhiess of Macaulay's work. Nevertheless, from the standpoint of the rhetorician it is evident that the History is full of exaggeration and depreciation. Macau- lay's use of exaggeration and hyperbole will be treated in another chapter. So full of rhe- torical artifices vi^as Macaulay, so eager to make forcible, not to say startling, statements, that he did not stop to nicely measure the truth.
