To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The places consecrated to the Christian faith became the asylums of liberty — the inviolable free soil. The church, at this sol- emn moment, accepted from God and from Constantine the task of emancipating the world without overturning it. "* This imperial edict is a high and ineffaceable water- mark by which... to measure the elevation of humanity through the gospel. To appreciate it, we must remind ourselves again, how the later pagan emperors had im- posed new restrictions upon the ancient right of manu- mission ; how vainly one looks for anything like common human feeling in the Roman slave-law of republican times, and that of the earlier empire; how the humane and candid historian, Tacitus, commends, as a measure "both of justice and security, " the decree of the Roman Senate, that "if any one was killed by his slaves, not only all his household slaves, but all under his roof who were made free by his will, should be executed for the • L'Englise et L'Euipire Romain, I.
