Excerpt from The Hand of God in the Great Man: A Sermon Delivered in the West Church, Boston, Occasioned by the Death of Daniel Webster WE meet this morning With one feeling. When, at God's decree, human greatness from all its state falls to the ground like a leaf When death, usually doing its work in silence, seems to cry out over the bier of the high and distinguished When some figure, that has moved with imposing tread in our sight, towers still more out of the dark valley; When the drapery of mourning unrolls itself from private chambers to line the streets, darken the Win dows, and hang the heavens in black; When the stroke of the bell adds a sabbath solemnity to the days of the week, and the boom of guns, better fired over the dead than at the living, echoes all through our territory; while the wheels of business stop, and labor leans its head, and trade foregoes its gains, and commu nication, save on one theme, ceases, we may well ask the meaning and cause.
