Summary[edit]

Description
English: Lady Columbia points indignantly to some mud stains on the columns of the White House and delivers a lecture taken from Shakespeare's Julius Caesar.

Caption:

Columbia.

“O judgment, thou art fled to brutish beasts,
And men have lost their reason!
They, that have done this deed, are honorable;
What private griefs they have, alas, I know not,
That made them do it; they are wise and honorable,
And will, no doubt, with reasons answer you.
I come not, friends, to steal away your hearts;
I am no orator, as Brutus is:
I tell you that which you yourselves do know.”
— Julius Caesar, Act III, Scene II.
