Excerpt from "Abolition Speech" by William Wilberforce (May 12, 1789; House of Commons, London) When I consider the magnitude of the subject which I am to bring before the House-a subject, in which the interests, not of
this country, nor of Europe alone, but of the whole world, and of posterity, are involved: and when I think, at the same time,
on the weakness of the advocate who has undertaken this great cause-when these reflections press upon my mind, it is
impossible for me not to feel both terrified and concerned at my own inadequacy to such a task.
