We can not as a nation be too profoundly
grateful for the fact that the Puritan has
stamped his influence so deeply on our
national life. We need have but
scant
patience with the men who now rail at the
Puritan's faults. They were evident, of
course, for it is a quality of strong natures
that their failings, like their vi
r
tues, should
stand out in bold relief; but there is nothing
easier than to belittle the great men of the
past by d
welli
ng only on the points where
they come short of the universally
recognized standards of the present.
