To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
For the solution of this moral pheno- menon (for so it appears to the world), for this extraordinary and utter renunciation of self and the world, for this force of religion over corrupt nature and every thing dear to carnal man, and this bringing into captivity every height that exaketh itself against the knowledge of God, we must look to the omnipotence 12 of divine grace, which, in some measure, makes its faithful recipient omnipotent too, and enables him to say, " / can do all things in him... that strengtheneth me." The ways of Providence in bringing about its gracious de- signs are truly mysterious and admirable. What could be farther from all human calculation than the means which this inscrutable Providence employed to effect the conversion of Ireland. A captive youth, cast upon its shores by the evil de- signs of men — a stranger and a slave is the vessel of election destined to plant the cross and preach the Gospel of Jesus in this once Pagan isle. The young Gallitzin came apparently to this country from worldly motives — from a love of travel and im- provement, at the instigation of an ambitious parent, who wished to make his son a finished votary of the world ; but Providence marked him out as a vessel of election to contri- bute to the salvation of hundreds.
