To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If that institution had continued, how great would have been the public economy in the support of the clergy ! One twen- tieth part of the revenues of the Church at the present time, would be sufficient to support a single, that is, unmarried clergyman, in the propor tion of one to every one thousand souls of the population. If it be said, that" the ecclesiastical revenues return to the people, through some other chan- nel, a better condition would be that nineteen-twentieths of it should not h...ave been taken from them at all. But even the economy would not be the only advantage. The influence of such a ministry of religion, acting in a moral direction, could not but produce the happiest effects, among . that portion of mankind who are compelled to toil daily for the means of subsistence. Their pleasures would be of a more rational, more elevat- ing, and, at the same time, more economical description. Their feelings and manners would be softened and improved, by the influence of religion and frequent intercourse with its ministers.
