To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The instinct of home is simply the drawing to- gether of souls most alike and congenerous aroimd their own special centre, that there the ruling love may have the fullest gratification and nourishment, and from that centre radiate in most delightful exercise for the good of others. Two or more minds toned alike, and acting as one, from a common centre and for a common end, make up the idea of home. It is so now, it will be so always. Let the instinct of home be destroyed, and man would be utter...ly demoral- ized, or hopelessly insane. His life becomes aimless, and he wanders in spiritual vagabond- ism, he knows not whither or for what. The yGoogk HOME. ' 135 animals have not this instinct, except so far as they reflect it from man, and are drawn by him within its influence. It is his by eminent endow- ment and prerogative. Hence the peculiar and utter loathsomeness of those crimes which are committed against it, — which either disturb the unity of home or soil its purity ; for the lusts that tend to this destroy the very image of humanity, and break it in pieces under the hoofs of the most swinish pollution.
