The Crisis. The engraving shows one of his model
communities. The captions read:
"The Crisis, or the change from error and misery, to truth and
happiness. If we cannot yet reconcile all opinions, let us endeavour to
unite all hearts. It is of all truths the most important, that the
character of man is formed FOR--not BY himself.
Design of a Community of 2,000 Persons, founded upon a principle,
commended by Plato, Lord Bacon, Sir T. More, & R. Owen."
