To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
That Mr. Lincoln was brief in his public addresses, in his State papers and correspondence was one of his glori- ous innovations. Not affluent, yet how weighty were his 12 words, as in his emancipation proclamation and his last In- augural, a document of deathless fame. I have no patience with that opinion, which allows good- ness but not greatness to our late President. All admit that he was a man of talents, that is, of usefulness, but some deny that he had genius — much that has been written... of him involves this view of his character. But Mr. Emerson's estimate is more just and comprehen- sive. " The weight and penetration of many passages in his speeches, letters and messages, hidden now by the close- ness of their application to the moment, are destined here- after to a wide fame. What pregnant definitions, what unerring common sense, what foresight, and on great occa- sions, what lofty and more than national, what humane tone. It cannot be said there was any exaggeration of his worth.
