To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
His very ignorance of state-craft and artifice was as charming as the frankness and ingenuousness of youth in the crowd of hardened and deceitful men of the world. His acknowledgment of God was a gleam of hope in the days of unreasoning trust in material prosperity. With such qualities of heart he could not be a patriot, without being a sincere one ; he could not bend his energies to subserve the interests of his country, with- out a firm hand and a single eye. Many doubted, many feared: some w...ere utterly faithless and hope- less. And for such feelings, it may be, there were grounds not altogether unreasonable ; for he was a new man, girding himself to a new enterprise. He had yet to demonstrate his capacity, and to show, in the hardest conflict of the most tempestuous times, his competency and quality. The faint outlines and foreshadowings which in the outset inspired hope have been deeply drawn and filled in to the admira- tion of his countrymen, and so as to secure, we doubt not, the approving judgment of a dispassionate pos- terity.
