Excerpts from classical novel Ivanhoe : "But a glance on the great picture of life will show, that the duties of selfdenial, and the sacrifice of passion to principle, are seldom thus remunerated; and that the internal consciousness of their high-minded discharge of duty, produces on their own reflections a more adequate recompense, in the form of that peace which the world cannot give or take away" Abbotsford, 1st September, 1830.
