Excerpt from Sermon Preached in the Church in Brattle Square, Boston, August 1, 1830: The Lord's Day After the Decease of the Honourable Isaac Parker
Magistracy is one of the greatest trusts committed to human integrity and wisdom. Under forms of government which have generally prevailed, men's imaginations, excited by a sense of its importance, are not satisfied without seeing it invested in an external array, significant of its exaltation above the common offices of life. It must wear the purple or the ermine. It must dwell in a palace, and move abroad attended by a crowd. Under our simpler institutions, we dispense with its livery and its parade; and possibly, to the vulgar view, its essential dignity is thereby made less imposing. The plain man, who meets his neighbours on an equal footing in the common scenes of life, dazzling them with no show, repelling them by no arrogance, may be forgotten by them to be the same, who, day and night, is holding steadily over them and theirs the shield of the sovereign power.
