Synopsis
Excerpt from Our Strong Rods Broken and Withered: A Discourse Upon the Recent Decease of Calhoun, Clay, and Webster, Delivered at the Central Presbyterian Church, on the 14th Day of November, 1852
But the particular lesson of the divine providence, when the great and the honorable bow themselves before the touch of the destroyer, is one addressed to the nation whose strongrods are broken and withered Put not your trust in man, whose breath is in his nostrils; it is better to trust in the Lord, than to put confidence in princes. Ezekiel, in, the con text, represents the former prosperity of the Hebrew State as consisting, mainly, in the strength and greatness of her chief men and counselors: And she had strong rods for the scepters of them that bare rule, and her stature (for this) was exalted among the thick branches, and she appeared in her height with her multitude of branches; but afterward in the day of her calamity, the prophet declares that her strong rods were broken and withered. What words can be more suitable or express1ve, on an occasion like this, in View of the recent decease of the three great statesmen of this continent? Is it not true that our strong rods are broken and withered?
