ages and conditions, on whose faces we may never look. We seek to bring to
innumerable homes, from the stirring world around us, the knowledge of
many social wonders, good and evil, that are not calculated to render any
of us less ardently persevering in ourselves, less faithful in the
progress of mankind, less thankful for the privilege of living in this
summer-dawn of time.”
