To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If he was ever disposed to practise a little art upon the Bench, which did sometimes happen when the Court was hearing law arguments, though I never saw it when a Jury was before him, it was the giving his complete attention, and with some more show of deference than was usual in him for, in general, he had little of that to an unsound argument, that was pressed upon him with confidence and positiveness, perhaps the more from his seeming to receive it kindly; and then, especially if it came fro...m Counsel who ought to have known better, he would, as a huntsman serves a hound who opens vociferously upon a wrong scent, take the offender by the neck, give him half a dozen sharp lashes, and leave him to re- 21 cover himself at his leisure. This, it is true, was rarely done, and never, unless the punishment was due, and never, also, but in such a manner as to be without personal offensiveness the argument, and not the speaker, being treated as the delinquent. He could be very sarcastic and severe, but this was far from his general bearing.
