An Age Of Expansion "Short Studies in Literature" By Hamilton Wright Mabie *Piece from Notes* Still in this same paragraph Mabie then reveals to the reader the result of this behavior in these methods of expression and having this linear thought of self conveyence as he stated “that one loses all perception of order and symmetry.” To which, he then later on in the following paragraphs finally lifts the veil of the mass culprit of what drives, or can drive, a society into that of chaos and delusion being none other than the relentless, impulsive, and ignorant misuse of Liberty itself. As Mabie continues to speak of the consequences concerning the disregard in tradition, the dismissal for “the reports of the past,” as he puts it, and stated, “the mind has taken a new start and resolved to see things for itself.” “Liberty always carries with it a certain license, the overflow of its powerful current; and liberty is the prime characteristic of an age of expansion.” -Hamilton Wright Mabie
