——Explain a thing till all men doubt it.
And write about the subject, and about it:
So spins the silk-worm small its slender store,
And labours till it clouds itself all o'er.
This, yet, is none of his concern. The love of truth is a motive which ought to supersede every other consideration: for every other consideration is subordinate in comparison with it. Truth requires no tenderness of investigation, and scorns all subterfuges. It is, when displayed,
——divinely bright.
One dear, unchang'd, and universal light.
To rescue truth, therefore, from obscurity and disguise, is the most rational way of giving
Glory to God in the highest; and on earth, peace: good-will toward men.
