From The Stricken Deer: The Life of William Cowper, by David Cecil

BECAUSE

"It was because their world was so small that they could touch so many sides of it, because they took the facts of existence for granted they could cultivate its graces, because they never doubted they were born to rule that they could say with Pitt, 'I believe I can save the country, and no one else can.'"

From, A Prologue
