Disperse, and foreswear this obsession with the rationalization of your own ignorance. That you have learned an ancient word is a virtue; but ypur protesting it without grounds or merit turns it to a grave sin, full of hubris, and a braying demand for justification of know-nothingery. Giver o'er, sir, ere you damn yourself roundly with your own protestations!
