"Laws and Principles are not for the times when there is no temptation. They are for such moments as this, when body and soul rise in mutiny against their rigor…If at my convenience, I might break them, what would be their worth?"-Charlotte Bronte. Analyze and Explain the quotation and Take a stance on the truth it espouses. Do you agree or disagree? Why? What is the universal truth?

Charlotte Bronte is trying to explain that laws and principles are tested when things are not going well.

Explanation:

The author is trying to explain that in perfect or good times, the ultimate test of laws and our principles are not tested but they are tested in the face of extreme inconvenience because that is when we discover the worth of our laws and conscience because we make decisions that shows if we truly believe in our laws and principles or if we hold on to them when things are going well and they are not challenged.

I agree with the speaker because the true test of our laws and principles are when we face inconvenience and not when it is convenient for us to do it.

The universal truth here is that laws and conscience can be kept when there is a state of utopia but is threatened when there is anarchy.

peace, morning, sun glooming, sorrow, woe pardon’d, punished, more hence, talk, story. all of these three words have to do something with a depressed, regretful tone. woe is another word for misery, heartache, so all of these words are about unhappy feelings.
