NOT in equality and equal rights--are not so much in contradistinction
to one another in respect to the exoteric class, standing without, and
viewing, estimating, measuring, and judging from the outside, and not
from the inside; the more essential
distinction
is that the class in

Defied of old the banded Gothic powers,
Whose harden'd nerves in rig'rous climates train'd

Aw'd by whose arms the lawns of Betis' shore
The name

and it was in no way equal to the silver age, but was terrible and
strong.
