There is not one great modern
character more thoroughly human
than he is. In fact in his day small
men reaching no higher than his
ankles could see nothing but the
mud on his shoes, and failed utterly
to raise their eyes to the noble head,
with its face scanned more than any
mans through the frightful soul
straining weight that was laid by
the people upon this man Of the
prople. As the ropes fall from a
statue ut the unveiling, 30 all his
littleness traits of q humanity

often have no greatness to vary our
pettiness-sre No longer existent,
