To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In the holiest courts of the most holy all was rank- ness, loathsomeness, putrescence ; only a theatric show of sanctitude was kept up scarcely with de- cency, to deceive those who might be deceived by the good fortune of not living too near the actors. And thus was realized the most sorrowful example of the truth of the ancient adage — comi])tio ojptimi pessima ; the CORRUPTION OF THE BEST THINGS IS THE WORST. UTILITARIANISM. Of recent British phenomena in the domain of ethical philosophy, wha...t is called Utilitarianism is the most notable, certainly the most noisy. If, in- deed, there is anything distinctive in the most recent tone of philosophic thought and sentiment in this country, apart from speculations springing out of pure physical science, it is this very thing, or some- thing that claims close kindred with it. It is talked of in the streets and commented on in the closet ; and numbering, as it does, amongst its advocates some of the most astute intellects of the age, it certainly deserves an attentive examination.
