Once the germ of personal ambition arises from dormancy, like a dark and evil genius, it will overshadow an erstwhile sweet and sunny mind; left unsubdued, its force increases to proportions such as to sweep away all honor, loyalty, mercy, and love: if there be aught to gain, fair and kindly friendship is sacrificed; gratitude shrivels and dies; loyalty gives place to cowardice; honor succumbs to treachery; and love is laid low.
