rico el diccionario, y concluye asegu-
rando que ell idioma espanol apenas
debe estudiarse como un almacen de
antiguallas.
Para que I'm hombre de talento,
como es el Sr. Rojas Garrido, llegue
q pensar tales cosas, es precise que
la idea liberal sea, no una de las Mu-
sas sino una de las Eumenides; pa
ra que 10 escriba es precise que nues-
tro pdblico este va profundamente
viciado. La Repdblica, segun nues-
tras ideas cat6licas, es una madre,
que protege todo, desarrollando ven
tajosamente todos los intereses legiti-
mos, amparado todos los taientos, to-
das las ciencias y todas las virtudes;
pero la Repdblica, segun la idea libe-
raj, es solo una parca con su antofcha
de petroleo. He aqui por que en- nues-
ira Rep1blica ideal cabe todo ell nun.
do, inclusive los liberales, porque
en- la suya, ideal tambien, no hay ca
bida para nadie, inclusive para ellos
mismos. La Repdblica sin Dios es un
desierto organizado en- torrentes y en-
terremotos; en- que no puede haber
otro 6rden que ell des6rden. @
Ell castellano, lengua muertal Has
ia del castellano es enemiga la idea
liberal! oJ
Hacienda ell debido honor al meri-
to que encierran hemos trascrito los
parratos anteriores, entresacandolos
de una correspondence escrita sin
pretensiones Y es de notar ell diab6-
lico intento de anonadar la lengua cas-
telIana para .obtener fines politicos y
rellgiosos que, 81 q triunfar llegaran,
ser1an la ruina completa de nuestra
raza en- America. Hay, empero, en- es-
to mas l6glca de 10 que pudiera Greer
Sc a primera vista. La lengua en- que
esta escrito este soneto:
mo me mueve, mi Dios, para quererte,
FL cielo que me tienes prometido,
Nj me mueve ell inferno tan temido
Para dejar por ESQ de ofenderte:
Iu me mueves, Senor, mueveme verte
Clavado en- una cruz escarnecido;
Muevenme yer tu cuerpo tan herido;
Mueveme tus afrentas y tu muerte.
Td me mueves, en- fin, de tai manera
Que, aunque no hub era cielo, yo te amara,
Y aunque no hubiera inferno te temiera.
No me tienes que dar por que te quiera,
Porque, 81 10 que espero no esperara,
Lo mismo que te quiero te quisiera."
es un alcazar de la fG de nuestros ma
yores; y por ESQ decimos que son 10
gicos los que quieren destruir ell alca-
Ear para profanaf el tesoro mistico que
encierra. Tienen va tai extension es-
tos apuntes que es fuerza terminarlos

ocuparnos del particular.

LA LENGUA CASTELLANA.

Despues de la santa, consoladora y
dnica verdadera religion-la de Je-
sucristo-y antes que la civilization,
las fortifcaciones y todos los monu-
mentos grandiosos que Espana dej6
en- America, esta la lengua castellana.

de ese idioma, de ese legado q todas

to, pero no impossible, engrandeci-
miento. Asf 10 comprenden, como Sc
vera mas adelante, los hombres de Or

pensable del republicanismo ell 6dio &

Y aun cuando las distancias que en-
