To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Christ is " the way, the truth, and the life. " ORj POETRY AND RELIGION. 91 " In bis blest life, We see tbe patb, and in bis deatb tbe price, And In his groat ascent, the proof supreme Of immortality. " But we do not propose leaving the question solely on tliis ground. Without insisting on the cumulative argument, which we have thus reared, step after step, as we have ad- vanced, we design to point out, from the eminence which we have already gained, some traces of affiaity, visible even here, ...to confirm the testimony collected in our ascanding progress. It would be both inappropriate and unnecessary here to enlarge on the evidences of Christianity. It may not be amiss, however, to consider that the truth of Christianity necessarily implies not merely a nominal, but a real and uni- versal ascendancy, in its obligations over the race ; so that it should be regarded as a sole and supreme substitute for all the illeiritimate forms and manifestations of reliarion that have ever appeared. That Christianity is true, and that it is exclu- sively the true religion — the only system adapted to the nature and condition of man — are often regarded as distinct propo- sitions.
