To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
These are the simple inferences drawn from the philosophical premises, the justness of which I shall hereafter examine. The arguments founded on these premises, are many. Cot- ton, rice, indigo, tobacco, and sugar, are great blessings to the world, say they, and they may as well be made to make them as not ; for they are a lazy crew at the best, and if they are not made to work for us, they will not work at all, Sec. But to come at the truth, the whole system is founded in avarice. 1 believe th...e premises to be the production of modern philoso- phy, bearing elate with European slavery ; and it has been the almost sole cause of the present prevailing public sentiment in regard to the colored population. It has given rise to the uni- versal habit of thinking that they were made for the sole end of being slaves and underlings. There could be nothing more natural, than for a slaveholding nation to indulge in a train of thoughts and conclusions that favored their idol, slavery. It becomes the interest of all parties, not excepting the clergy, to sanction the premises, and draw the conclusions, and hence, to teach the rising generation.
