“What is this conversation, now secular,
A speech not mine yet speaking for me in
The heaving jelly of my tribal air?
It rises in the throat, it climbs the tongue,
It perches there for secret tutelage....”

“The rights of persons, and the rights of property, are the objects, for the protection of which Government was instituted.”
