I will not believe our labors are lost. I shall not die without a hope that light and liberty are on steady advance. And even should the cloud of barbasrism and despotism again obscure the science and liberties of Europe, this country remains to preserve and restore light and liberty to them.
In short, the flames kindled on the 4th of July, 1776, have spread over too much of the globe to be extinguished by the feeble engines of despotism.
