El Imparcial. (San Juan, P.R.) 1918-197?, 1923-08-18

LA genesis de mi conviction es la
siguiente: Mas, comeneemos por el
final. Yo que casi no creo en- cosa al
guna, creo puios semicerrados-pa-
ra abrirlos completamente cuanto que
me convenza de 10 equivocados de mi
creencia, ,-en la acci6n de la Provi-
dencia en- el curse natural de la His
toria de la Humanidad, porque estoy
casi eonvencido de que todos, hombres
y pueblos, nacemos predestinados y
que en- la realization de nuestros res
pectivos destinos podran nuestras per-
sonales determinaciones aparentemen-
te adelantarla retardarla, incons-
cientemente infuidas por ell simulta-
neo parsimonioso desenvolvimiento de
las realizaciones de otros destinos de
hombres 0 pueblos, pero que, fatal,
digo NAL, providencialmente, ell desti-
no universal Sc cumple.

y, por consiguiente, de sangre pura es-
paiola, no fui de los que entusiasma-
dos abrieron los brazos u otrasl extre-
midades los norteamericanos invaso-
res de esta Isla, sino que la Ultima
campanada de las doce del diez y ocho
de octubre de mil ochocientos noventa
y ocho en- que Jay! ell caballeroso gene
raj espaiiol Sr. Ortega entregaba la
plaza de San Juan al general norte-
americana Sr. Brooke, completando
la invasion, una amarguisima gotta de
sangre Gaia de mi corazon COMO mo-
desto tribute una apenas superada
grandeza historica q. aparentemente,
Sc derrumbaba casi sin estrepito, qui-
zas para dar lugar un nuevo v mas
grande providencial acaecimiento
hist6rico cuyo presentimiento ligera-
mente endqlzo aquella amargufsima
amargura y disc1lpeme Ell pleonasnio,
porque nj aun asi expreso bien la mas
amarga de- las amarguras.
