Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Virginia Constitution of 1776: A Discourse Delivered Before the Virginia Historical Society, at Their Annual Meeting, January 17th, 1852 In rising to address you, I feel oppressed by the conviction that I have nothing to offer worthy of the Society, worthy of the occasion, or worthy of this large and most enlightened audience: and I have, therefore, to throw myself upon your indulgence for what, I fear, will be considered the crudeness of this address. Mr. President, I have been much gratified, since my arrival in the city, to learn from our respected Secretary, that the Virginia Historical Society is no longer an experiment, that all those many difficulties which embarrass the infancy of such enterprises every where, but especially in the Southern States, have been successfully surmounted, and that the Society may now be considered as established on a permanent basis.
