weapons. She did not defend the manner in
which the condemned had proclaimed their
views; she severely censured all classes of
society. And, though her sympathy, on this
as on all occasions, was with youth, she bade
them realise that the advance party, which they
represented, must learn to choose weapons
and rightly use them or shoulder the seri-

arise. "Our own faults and mistakes are in
the long run the only dangerous enemies to

Sharp attacks were made on Ellen Key
through the press. Many who had hitherto
been on her side now turned from her. But no-
thing disturbed her assurance of having acted
right. Now first did we become acquainted
with her strong personality, her passion for
justice which since childhood had inspired her
with an obdurate courage to defend, and from
this time on made itself more and more felt.
Ellen Key's words resounded through the
whole land. Her brave stand for the cause
of justice gave her a prominent place among
persons holding similar views, but lacking her
courage, and perhaps also her knowledge and
genius.
