Excerpt from A Sermon, Preached at the Funeral of His Excellency William Eustis, Esq.: Late Governor of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, in Presence of the Constituted Authorities of the State, February 11, 1825

We occupy a station so honorable and elevated, that he will not dare to approach us. Pale death strikes with equal foot the cottages of the poor and the palaces of princes. We have no strength to resist his power; and no armour which is proof against his arrows, when he marks us as his vic tims. We are sensible that there is no discharge in this war. Death is a mysterious and awful modification of our existence to which we must submit, whether prepared for it or not.
