Description
Excerpt from Abe Lincoln in Illinois: A Play in Three Acts
Men. Yes - ahere - (reaches for newspaper in the mess on the table.) I xwant you to read this - it''s a speech delivered by Mr. Webster before the United States Senate. A fine document, and a perfect usage Of the Imperative mood in its hortatory sense. Here it is-read this down here.
Abe. (moves into light.) ''while the Union lasts, the Senator continued in the deep rich tones of the historic church bells of his native Boston we have high prospects spread out before us, for us and our children. Beyond that I seek not to penetrate the veil. God grant that in my day, at least, the curtain may not rise.''
