To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Must it not have been a glorious, a spirit-stirring spectacle, the coining together of these " lights of men," these delicice humani generis ? Only think of two human beings, rational and responsible agents, destined to an immortality of ceaseless progress, and infinite de- velopment, standing up face to face, in all their naked, manly majesty, and beauty ; see them sur- rounded by a .circle of enthusiastic votaries, compos- ed of the very flower of our citizens ; comprising all that is venerab...le in years, exemplary in character, precious in reputation, and fascinating in manners.
And now, they contemplate each other, with an ex- pression of fierce, yet generous defiance ; they shake hands impressively ; they fall into position, and pre- sently, they begin a series of sublime and beautiful evolutions, and demonstrations, at once the wonder, and glory of pugilism ! What heart does not leap within him, as he reads the unadorned, but most gra- phic, descriptions of the scene ! As round after round passes before us, (each worthy to constitute a book of some majestic epic,) how the incidents crowd upon the imagination !
