Description:Excerpt from Lessons From an Ancient Fast: A Discourse Delivered in the Citadel Square Church, Charleston, S. On the Occasion of the General Fast, Thursday, June 13, 1861 "Then I proclaimed a fast there at the river of Ahava, that we might afflict ourselves before our God, to seek of Him a right way for us, and for our little ones, and for all our substance. For I was ashamed to require of the king a band of soldiers and horsemen to help us against the enemy in the way, because we had spoken unto the king, saying, The hand of our God is upon all them for good that seek Him; but His power and His wrath is against all them that forsake Him. So we fasted and besought our God for this, and He was entreated of us." - Ezra viii, 21 - 3. The successive ages, in their histories, are much like concentric circles, ever increasing in number, ever expanding, but ever preserving a fixed resemblance to each other. The last is like the first, only larger, bolder and more imposing; the first is like the last, the model and prophecy of all that come after. The movements and destinies of insignificant peoples and societies in the world's infancy, proceeded upon principles and were developed in accordance with laws which govern the grander movements and destinies of the mighty nations existing at this hour. The whole future oak is said to be contained in the acorn, and the first little commonwealth was not merely the germ of all future States and Empires, but their actual type and miniature representative. The statesman is, and must be, a student of history; for there he learns in advance, by tracing in their practical operations and visible results, what are the hidden laws which control human affairs, and to which he should conform his own plans and measures.
