To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
bourlng hills, rivers, plains, being that of propinquity only, demands but a fmall ihare of congruity : among members of the fame club, the congruity ought to be confiderable, as well as among things placed for mow in the fame niche : among paifengers in a ftage-coach we require very little congruity ; and lefs dill at a public fpeclacle. Congruity is fo nearly allied to beauty, as com- monly to be held a fpecies of it ; and yet they differ fo eflentially, as never to coincide : beauty, like co...lour, is placed upon a fmgle fubjecl: : congruity upon a plurality : further, a thing beautiful in itfelf, may, with relation to other things, produce the ftrongeft fenfe of incongruity. Congruity and propriety are commonly reckoned fynonimous terms ; and hitherto in opening the fub- jecl they have been ufed indifferently ; but they are diftinguimable ; and the precife meaning of each muft be afcertained. Congruity is the genus, of which propriety is a fpecies ; for we call nothing propriety, but that congruity or fuitablenefs, whicbsaught to fubfift between fenfible beings and their thoughts, words, and actions.
