O knihe

Excerpt from The Atlantic Monthly, 1898, Vol. 82: A Magazine of Literature, Science, Art, and Politics

To serve under such a leader as Sir Robert Peel was one of the fortunate happenings of Gladstone's life. His, too, was a conscientious mind. We may sometimes have to doubt an equal direct ness in its working, as compared with the in¿exible candor of Peel; but the desire for right was controlling in both. Gladstone was intellectually more alert, and he possessed an imagination that was lacking in his chief. In tempera ment he was a far more impressionable man, and much more disposed by his nature to become responsive to the ex panding and liberalizing tendencies of his age. That natural disposition in him was still oppressed by one tyrannical pre possession of mind; but its liberation approached, and the younger and the elder statesman were soon attuned to a harmony of cooperation which developed the best powers of the one as much as it assisted the work of the other.
