Friends, and fellow voyagers,
in the greatest of all dreams. We've been singled out,
like lsrael of old, to serve as a model.
But if we are to succeed in building our new Jerusalem,
our ''City on a Hill'', then the power of love,
yea, His Divine Love, we must bind our hearts as one!
English and lndian, gentry and indentured,
free man and slaves and make of us
an example for all the world, to marvel at and proclaim:
''Here... is the measure of perfection!
Here, lives God's own!''
But we are not succeeding in that test.
We are failing! And why?
Because we covet, nay,
we *** after what is not ours.
Be it for the rich land of our lndian brothers,
be it for glory, for profits or for revenge.
Need l read the secret of every heart?
l will if you want. Yea, l will if you want.
l will lay open the secrets before the eyes of God!
What thou lusteth after is my enemy, sayeth the Lord God.
For only l shall consume thee, only l shall fill thee up.
lf thou failest to heed my commandments,
then my fist shall descend on thee
like a stone! And thy sword shall cut thee
into bloody parts, and even thy memories
shall be sacrificed to the winds
for all time! May God bless you,
each and every one of you. Amén
