compelled through suffering lb turn from their selfishness arid follies to the sours last resort God The punishment may entail rivers of blood and oceans of tears but the means are justified by the end at least in this case Fur thermore no other means have ever been found adequate Illustrations without number can be given of the truth of this statement The one best known is found in the history

decided on a certain policy affecting her trade relationship with Germany France and Russia The policy became law and was executed be cause i was advantageous to Britain Its effect on Germany France and would un doubtedly be injurious but that fact would be of secondary im portance and in truth might ev en be considered an advantage as a retaliation for some previous in jury to resulting from a
