To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And since the latter do not usually lead to any beneficial result, or indeed to any result at all, we believe them to differ in their nature from the com- missioned or permitted messengers of God's holy will. Therefore, as some instances of these alleged supernatural appearances have been distinctly traced to certain phenomena of bodily agency, we hold it to be most logical, most consistent with sound reasoning, most agreeable to revelation, and most honourable to God, to ascribe other unknown,... but analogous and extraordinary phenomena, to a similar cause ; and for this plain reason, that it is un- necessary and unwise to call in the aid of su- pernatural power, when a peculiar morbid state of the body will abundantly explain, for the most part, this supposed spiritual agency. We must not reject this explanation, because it may not solve all the difficulties of the sub- ject. Is there scarcely any natural problem of which we can unravel all the intricacies of ac- tion and passion, and motive and influence ?
