"The character and conquest of the invincible champion are ever the same. A Lacedaemonian died while writing with his own blood on a rock — "Sparta has conquered!" But, O, there is an illustration higher and better than any derived from mere earthly annals. Jesus veiled His glory in the skies; shrouded divinity in mortality, and with godhead and humanity coalesced in His person, entered the lists with more than mortal strife against the powers of hell."
