Excerpt from The Oath a Divine Ordinance, and an Element of the Social Constitution: Its Origin, Nature, Ends, Efficacy, Lawfulness, Obligations, Interpretation, Form and Abuses The theme is ne of vast im rtance. It more deeply affects the welfare of human society than the superficial observer would at all suppose. There is not an interest in life: there is not a right or privilege worth preserving, that may not owe its preservation to the sanctions of the oath.
