delightful. for who is there so cold, that a nation's sympathy could not warm him? who so
obdurate and dead to the claims of gratitude, that would not acknowledge such
priceless benefits? who so stubborn and selfish that would not give his voice to swell the
hallelujahs of a nation's jubilee, when the chains of servitude had been torn from his limbs?

leap as an hart."
