There are some nations

“By what means,”
said the Prince, “are the Europeans thus powerful?  or why,
since they can so easily visit Asia and Africa for trade or  conquest,
cannot the Asiatics and Africans invade their coast,  plant colonies
in their ports <a<br>href=”http://fakeoakleysoutlet.org/o…“>oakley

their natural  princes?  The same wind that carries them back
would bring us  thither.”

“They are more powerful, sir, than we,”
answered Imlac, “because  they are wiser; knowledge will
always predominate over ignorance,  as man governs the other
animals.  But why their knowledge is more  than ours I know
not what reason can be given but the unsearchable  will of the Supreme
Being.”

“When,” said the Prince with a sigh,
“shall I be able to visit  Palestine, and mingle with this
mighty confluence of nations?  Till  that happy moment shall
arrive, let me fill up the time with such  representations as thou
canst give me.  I am not ignorant of the  motive that
assembles such numbers in that place, and cannot but  consider it as
the centre of wisdom and piety, to which the best  and wisest men of
every land must be continually resorting.”

“There are some nations,” said Imlac,
“that send few visitants to  Palestine;
for many numerous and learned sects in Europe
concur to  censure pilgrimage as superstitious, or deride it as
ridiculous.”

“You know,” said the Prince, “how
little my life has made me  acquainted with diversity of opinions; it
will be too long to hear  the arguments on both sides; you, that have
considered them <a<br>href=”http://fakeoakleysoutlet.org/o…“>cheap
oakleys polarized hijinx sunglasses brown,
tell  me the result.”

 
“Pilgrimage,”
said Imlac, “like many other acts of piety, may be 
reasonable or superstitious, according to the principles upon which 
it is performed.  </a<br></a<br>
