discussion and restraint. It had arrested also the attention of the nation,
and it had produced a kind of holy flame, or enthusiasm, and this to a
degree and to an extent never before witnessed. Of the purity of this flame
no better proof can be offered, than that even bishops deigned to address

and dissenters forgot their difference of religious opinions, and joined
their hands, all over the kingdom, in its support.
