Excerpt from Discours Et Éloges Académiques, Vol. 1
Les travaux de M. Guizot ont été considérables, variés et nombreux. Critique, il a éclairé d'une vive lumière le génie de Shakespeare; professeur, il a renouvelé les sources de l'histoire; phi1050phe, il a cherché les voies de l'humanité dans les desseins de la Providence; biographe, il a fait revivre les plus hautes physionomies des temps modernes; orateur politique, il a connu peu de rivaux; premier mi nistre, il a dirigé pendant la prospérité les affaires du pays avec une rare élévation trahi par la for tune, il a supporté le malheur sans découragement, les injustices sans fiel et les tristesses de la patrie sans désespoir, confiant, pour la France meurtrie, dans la justice de Dieu, dont il avait si souvent si gnalé la main protectrice s'étendant sur elle et la relevant de ses ruines.
