Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sartor Resartus: A Fully Annotated Edition With an Introductory Essay on Thomas Carlyle Nor is it in this particular of his faith alone that Carlyle is distinguished from the illustrious Scots that have lived before him; the special virtue that he ia berits from each comes out in him in combination with other elements, which lend to it a brighter lustre and a worthier aim. The Wallace feeling, for example, that Scotland is not to lie under the foot, and slave it at the heck, of an alien, is transfigured in him into a grim, death-defiant hostility, not, as in Wallace, against the enemies of his country only, but against the whole leprous armada of selfish, lustful passions, that, beleaguering from without and betraying from within, threaten to brutalise the life, and so efface the divinity, and degrade the dignity, of man.
