But not so with Uncle Tom! He was the very perfection of a saint.

Well might St.Clare have proposed using him for a family chaplain, or suggested to himself the idea of ascending to heaven by Tom's skirts.

Mrs.Stowe should have carried out one of her ideas in his history, and have made him Bishop of Carthage.

I have never heard or read of so perfect a character.

All the saints and martyrs that ever came to unnatural deaths, could not show such an amount of excellence.
