To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If " History is Philoso phy teaching by example, " the narrative of the downfall of this first nation would doubtless furnish some useful lessons to states men of other times. But it is lost, " and like the baseless fabric of a vision, has left not a wreck behind. " Then, let us not deplore its unknown fate, but tarn our atten tion to its successor. The difference between the author of this Proclamation and myself, is radical and irreconcilable. He contends, that the in habitants of these now U...nited States are " one People. " To prove this he asserts, that before the Declaration of Independ ence, they had formed themselves into " a nation " the existence of which was proclaimed in that act ; and that afterwards, when the terms of this their first association (called now a confederation) " were reduced to form, it was in that of a solemn league of sev eral States, by which they agreed, that they would collectively form one nation, " for certain purposes which he expresses. On the other hand, I have contended, that these inhabitants are not now, nor ever were, one People, but always constituted several separate and distinct communities, which even in their colonial state, had long existed as such, and independent of each other.
