A Great Friendship
Thomas Jefferson and James Madison met in 1776. Could it have been any other year? They worked together starting then to further American Revolution and later to shape the new scheme of government. From the work sprang a friendship perhaps incomparable in intimacy and the trustfulness of collaboration and induration. It lasted 50 years. It included pleasure and utility but over and above them, there were【C1】______ purpose, a common end and an enduring【C2】______ on both sides. Four and a half months before he died, when he was【C3】______, debt-ridden, and worried about his impoverished 【C4】______ , Jefferson wrote to his longtime friend. His words and Madison’s reply【C5】______ us that friends are friends until death. They also remind us that【C6】______ a friendship has a bearing on things larger than the friendship【C7】______ , for has there ever been a friendship of greater【C8】______ consequence than this one?
" The friendship which has subsisted between us now half a century, the【C9】______ of our political principles and pursuits have been 【C10】______ of constant happiness to me through that long【C11】______. It’s also been a great solace to me to believe that you’re【C12】______ in vindicating to posterity the course that we’ve【C13】______ for preserving to them, in all their purity, their【C14】______ of self-government, which we had assisted in acquiring for them. 【C15】______ ever the earth has beheld a system of administration【C16】______ with a single and steadfast eye to the general【C17】______ and happiness of those committed to it, one which, 【C18】______ by truth, can never known reproach, it is that【C19】______ our lives have been devoted. To myself you have been a pillar of【C20】______ throughout life. Take care of me when dead and be assured that I should leave with you my last affections. "
A week later Madison replied — " You cannot look back to the long period of our private friendship and political harmony with more affecting recollections than I do. If they are a source of pleasure to you, what aren’t they not to be to me? We cannot be deprived of the happy consciousness of the pure devotion to the public good with which we discharge the trust committed to us and I indulge a confidence that sufficient evidence will find in its way to another generation to ensure, after we are gone, whatever of justice may be withheld whilst we are here. " [br] 【C7】
