Therefore I say that whether it is Christianity, Islam, or Hindooism, its principles, though they may not be intelligible to more than one sect, should yet be so wide as to include all men and all religions.

If she accepts we can readily forgive her unwillingness before to meet us fairly and squarely. If she declines, she will condemn herself in the eyes of every just and reasonable person, and expose herself to a suspicion which we cannot, at least would not, lay to the charge of our "dearest enemy...
