In Poland, the key provisions were to become fundamental laws, which would override any national legal codes or legislation. The new country pledged to assure "full and complete protection of life and liberty to all individuals... without distinction of birth, nationality, language, race, or religion." Freedom of religion was guaranteed to everyone. Most residents were given citizenship, but there was considerable ambiguity on who was covered. The treaty guaranteed basic civil, political, and cultural rights and required all citizens to be equal before the law and enjoy identical rights of citizens and workers. Polish was to be the national language, but the treaty provided for minority languages to be freely used privately, in commerce, in religion, in the press, at public meetings, and before all courts. Minorities were to be permitted to establish and control at their own expense private charities, churches, social institutions, and schools, without interference from the government, which was required to set up German-language public schools in districts that had been German before the war. All education above the primary level was to be conducted exclusively in the national language. Article 12 was the enforcement clause and gave the Council of the League of Nations the responsibility to monitor and enforce the treaties.[58][59]

Her confidence in his protecting power brought him scant consolation.A spirit of dreariness seemed to rise up from the faint reflectionsthat floated on the stagnant water; it blew stealthily out of theencroaching woods, and was voiced in the stuttering, tentative note ofan awakened owl. Familiarity with nature had freed him from that senseof pursuit in the woods at night which oppresses even a stout heartunaccustomed to loneliness, and the flight of the unexpected apparitionwas sufficient proof that he had no desire to molest them. Theincident certainly offered no ground for continued uneasiness, hereflected. Why, then, did she make so much of it? Why indeed, exceptthat her companion was not the one man in all the world with whom shewould choose to be there alone. The time and the place were full ofromantic suggestions, were the loved one present. That he was notpresent was indicated only too clearly by the unconscious confession ofher next remark: "I would n't have believed two hours ago that thispath could seem so long!"
Upon some natures oratory, the successful swaying of the crowd, has thesame effect, irrespective of the tone and content of the speech, thatis produced by the harmony of a great orchestra, an effect ofexaltation and lawlessness. In the young mathematician thisresponsiveness was a marked trait, at variance with another more coldlyintellectual quality. He began to feel that he ranged at will, freedfrom artificial and unreal restraints. He, too, would do some greatthing. On that full wave of excitement he was carried beyond the dikeswhich in cooler moments he had erected against himself.
This was the first appeal of the night, made to the eye alone; butpresently, despite the random noises of the street, they became awareof a dull, continuous sound, and knew that the stream which intersectedthe park on its way to the river had been freed from ice by the Januarythaw, and was pouring its swollen waters over the dam. The note wasdeep and full, like a solemn recitative, as if Nature's diurnalharmonies had sunk to this one transitional key. Above all, themildness of the air, full of the alluring witchery of a false spring,affected the imagination like a delicate, ethereal wine.
