“That is grand and beautiful, what you uttered again, and
hurled against traitors,--grand and beautiful in thought
(_der Idee_), which is principal with an old German
pupil, but not less so in form, for which likewise I have
appreciation. I wish I could find new words to communicate
to you the impression full of charm and joy, reading your
speech this morning. You still ascend in higher regions
with every one of your oratorical efforts.”
