To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Its outbreakings have already been seen in various parts of the earth. If the masters of the old world yield to its progress, it may reform abuses gradually, as the waterdash wears the marble, and they may hide in obscurity their imbecility and their shame. But let them form them- selves into alliances, and by combinations endeavor to preserve their sway, and u the overstrung nations will arm in madness. " Let them endeavor to breast and stop the tide of improve- ment which is rushing onward, a...nd it will sweep them away in its mighty torrent. The murmurings of the storm are al- ready heard in the forest — the sighings of the gusts of wind, and the groans of the laboring trees — if they prostrate them- selves before the coming tempest, it may pass them untouch- ed, unhurt; but woe to them who endeaver to brave it, for the angel of death will ride on its rushing wings. Reverses may ensue in the cause of freedom; hope delayed may sicken the souls of patriots, the exertions of heroes and martyrs may be, for a while, in vain — brave hearts may spill their best blood on the points of mercenary bayonets, but the cause of human nature and of God must triumph!
