It is my pleasure. Thank you for posting this, Jacquerie.
For, according to the system of Policy the States shall adopt at this moment, they will stand or fall, and by their confirmation or lapse, it is yet to be decided, whether the Revolution must ultimately be considered as a blessing or a curse: a blessing or a curse, not to the present age alone, for with our fate will the destiny of unborn Millions be involved.
As one of those "unborn Millions" that the General spoke of, may I say thank you, it was a blessing. Not only for Americans, but for freedom loving people everywhere.
