Popularne fragmenty
Strona 483 - Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who is lord over us?
Strona 457 - Therefore if any man can shew any just cause why they may not lawfully be joined so together, let him now speak, or else hereafter for ever hold his peace.
Strona 223 - We are further clearly of opinion, that an attack made on one of our sister colonies, to compel submission to arbitrary taxes, is an attack made on all British America, and threatens ruin to the rights of all, unless the united wisdom of the whole be applied.
Strona 271 - That if the said General Gage conceives he is empowered to act in this manner, as the...
Strona 481 - I am told that your brother wishes to be dictator. Tell him from me, that the day of his appointment shall be the day of his death; — for he shall feel my dagger in his heart before the sunset of that day.
Strona 483 - House as a day of fasting, humiliation and prayer, devoutly to implore the Divine interposition for averting the heavy calamity which threatens destruction to our civil rights, and the evils of civil war; to give us one heart and one mind firmly to oppose by all just and proper means every injury to American rights...
Strona 211 - Mr. Speaker, and Gentlemen of the House of Burgesses : I have in my hand a paper, published by order of your House, conceived in such terms, as reflect highly upon his majesty, and the Parliament of Great Britain, which makes it necessary for me to dissolve you, and you are dissolved accordingly.
Strona 484 - Whatever resolves or measures are intended for the preservation of our rights and liberties, will be reserved for the conclusion of the session. Matters of that sort here are conducted and prepared with a great deal of privacy, and by very few members ; of whom Patrick Henry is the principal.
Strona 479 - He was a man of finished education, and of the most unbending habits of application. His perfect mastery of every fact connected with the settlement and progress of the colony, had given him the name of the Virginian antiquary. He was also a politician of the first class ; a profound logician, and was also considered as the first writer in the colony ;" but he was a most ungraceful speaker in debate.
Strona 478 - He was as well suited to the times, as any man ever was, and it is not now easy to say what we should have done without Patrick Henry. He was far before all in maintaining the spirit of the Revolution. His influence was most extensive with the members from the upper counties, and his boldness and their votes overawed and controlled the more cool or the more timid aristocratic gentlemen of the lower part of the State.
