To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" Unless when roused to unusual fervor, his enunciation was very deliberate. He seemed to choose his words, and utter them emphatically, as if entitled to great weight. They always had great weight with juries, and it was increased by his reputation for personal honor and integrity. It would be alike presumptuous and invidious for me to attempt to compare, critically, his merits as an advocate with those of the other great lawyers of his day. Certainly, neither at its meri- dian nor towards its... close, was there any man in the profession who could treat him as other than a for- midable antagonist in the trial of a case, civil or criminal, for he was equally at home in either branch of practice, which is a circumstance by no means common. He was the very pink of courtesy in his demeanor to the bench, to the witnesses, and to the opposing counsel. This secured him from those angry collisions in which the advocate forgets the wrongs of his client, in resenting his own. But there was no lukewarmness in his advocacy; nor did he rest content with such display as might seem due to his own reputation, or to fees received.
