text_original: Walpole committed the great error of his life when he consented to accept the war policy which his enemies had proclaimed, and which he had so long resisted. Even if we consider his conduct not as a question of principle, but only as one of mere expediency, it must still be con  demned. No statesman is likely to be able to conduct a great war whose heart is all the time filled only with a longing for peace.
