our highest ideal

From Erin’s Weird and Wonderful Word of the Day:

linguipotence
[ling-GWIP-uh-tunce]

mastery of languages or the tongue. A nonce word used once by Samuel Taylor Coleridge: “The New Testament contains not the least proof of the linguipotence of the Apostles, but the clearest proof of the contrary.”
