To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But it would be an endless, though w T el- come, task, to describe the essential blessings, which spring from the Established Church, when unfettered and unobscured by the 8 poverty of herself and her sons. And who, indeed, it may be asked, does not fully believe all the good that can be said thereof? And whose heart would not burn within him at the very suggestion, that our actions, or rather our want of action, betrayed some doubts within us, of this much boasted excellency of the Church of E...ngland. Facts, however, would be the best witness of the truth or falsehood of such a charge; in refutation of which, we should only appeal to thou- sands of Churches erected during the last twenty years, as lasting evidence of our attachment to our Church, our Faith, and our God? But where are these thousands to be found? The munificent, but isolated, efforts of individuals, the grants of the Church Building Society, the Queen Anne Bounty funds, these seem only to speak to our shame, when, according to the last report of the Ecclesiastical Com- missioners, additional Church accom- modation for 600, 000 individuals has been the only result, together with endowment for some hundred clergymen, to attend to the wants of hundreds of thousands, nay, millions of Englishmen.
