To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
82 THE GATE OF PARADISE.
With a quiet and thankful heart I marked the hours pass, the stars fade in the pur- ple sky, and morning twilight steal over the distant line of gray sea. Even so, I thought, joy eternal 'cometh in the morn- ing ; ' even so will the last glad Easter dawn, and end the night of all earthly watching.
At length, however, weariness overcame me, and I fell asleep.
And in my dreams I seemed to stand at the Gate of Paradise. Below me were dark clouds and a steep descent; but ab...ove me an almost unapproachable Glory. Grouped about the Gate I beheld the forms of many waiting spirits, over whom floated a white banner, that bore on its pure and shining folds a golden Cross surmounted by a Crown.
An angel stood in the entrance, and as I drew near he said, 'Child of Earth, what THE GATE OF PARADISE. 83 brings thee to the Land of Light ? Speak, and fear not. ' ' Truly, ' I answered, * I know neither how nor why I came hither; but I am weak and weary, and if this be Paradise, I pray thee let me in, and cheer me by one sight of its eternal joy.
