The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Running a Thousand Miles for Freedom by William and Ellen Craft: the runaway prophet. This would not have seemed

"I venerate the man whose heart is warm,
Whose hands are pure; whose doctrines and whose life
Coincident, exhibit lucid proof
That he is honest in the sacred cause."
"But grace abused brings forth the foulest deeds,
As richest soil the most luxuriant weeds."
