Longtemps prisonnière d'une négligence obtuse et plombée, si elle est relâchée en temps opportun, l'ignorance saura se montrer reconnaissante envers la société en lui procurant des bienfaits; mais qu'on la laisse pâtir des années durant, et sa vengeance sera amère et destructrice.
Now there is a spirit of great power, the Spirit of Ignorance, long shut up in a vessel of obstinate neglect, with a great deal of lead in its composition, and sealed with the seal many, many Solomons.Release it in time and it will bless, restore and re-animate society; but let it die under rolling waves of years, and its blind revenge at last will be destruction.
