The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass: An American Slave by Frederick Douglass: the pulpit, and the pulpit, in return, covers his in-
fernal business with the garb of Christianity. Here
we have religion and robbery the allies of each other
--devils dressed in angels' robes, and hell presenting
the semblance of paradise.
"Just God! and these are they,
Who minister at thine altar, God of right!
Men who their hands, with prayer and blessing, lay
On Israel's ark of light.
