How Some Princes have Died
Psalm 82:6-7
I have said, You are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.…


Caesar was cruelly assassinated in the zenith of his glory. Casimir, King of Poland, died in the act of raising a jewelled cup to his lips. The Emperor Celsus was put to death seven days after his election. Charles XII. descended from the position of a conqueror to that of a forlorn exile. On the 24th of February, 1848, Louis Philippe rose in the Tuileries the King of the French; before midday he was a fugitive. Napoleon is one day ' "the arbiter of the destinies of Europe," and the next a forlorn exile on St. Helena.
