He has commissioned me, if possible,

To find this Jew out for him; and he raves

Loudly and bitterly against the crime,

Which he pronounces as the actual sin

Against the Holy Ghost--that is, the sin

The greatest, which a sinner can commit.

But luckily we can't exactly tell

Its nature. But my conscience all at once

Was roused, and it occurred to me that I

Had once, perhaps, been guilty of this sin.
