To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" My design in presenting these extracts and in this whole discourse, is not to present Mr. Lincoln's views on the various political topics which, by the course of events, have been presented to him for consideration and action. Time is not sufficient, nor is the place or time suitable, nor the speaker competent to do the theme justice ; I desire simply and plainly to. Present before our minds the man whom we love ; whose memory we are this day assembled to honor, in those shining personal and ...patriotic qualities which have endeared him to the nation ; and I have thought, that this object is better attained by presenting his own words in speeches and letters less fornial than his official documents. In these we see the man more prominently, while we see, scarcely less than in his official messages and proclamations, the statesman, the jurist, the logician, and the patriot. Good men may and will differ from Mr. Lincoln on some points of policy more or less important, but, I think, a candid reading of his honest, straight forward, matter of fact, practical, lucid statements of his views, will always bring the conviction that he perfectly knew his 12 A SERMON ON THE DEATH OF own views, and conscientiously held them ; that the epithet, " honest, " so often affixed to his name, is no misnomer, but a veritahle statement of fact.
