To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Johnson says, " It must be remembered that life consists not of a series " of illustrious actions, or elegant enjoyments. The " greater part of our time passes in compliance with ne- " cessities, in the performance of daily duties, in the re- " moval of small inconveniences, in the procurement of " petty pleasures ; and we are well or ill at ease as the •* main stream of life glides on smoothly or is ruffled by " small obstacles or frequent interruptions. The true state " of every nation is the... state of common life." The man who drives his team and turns his furrow to the best of his ability is doing all that man can do — that which the moment requires of him. The woman who keeps her house and performs the thousand little functions that are necessary in life is vastly more worthy of respect than those who seem to have no conception of the grand possibilities of a useful and healthful existence. It is true that some, from poor health, ample means, or different fields of usefulness, do not labor with their 10 own hands ; but the moment they abstain from it through a feeling that labor is degrading, there goes out from them their true manliness of character, as Sampson lost his strength when shorn of his locks by the blandishments of Delilah.
