To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The monarch of empires, the king .^f nations, the commander of armies, the conqueror of the world, never blots from his soul the immortal image o£ the God of love. Affection is universal and almost omnipotent. It is the spring-source of nearly all of earth's joys and the occasion of much of its most poignant anguish. The fault with the world is not^o much that there is not affection enough, but that it is not properly directed, not sufl5ci€htly cultivated, not duly controlled. All our affection...s should be subjected to enlightened wisdom. They are of themselves blind im- pulses, loving only because they can not help it, acting only because it is their nature to act, casting their fragrance upon evQry wind, only because they have the fragrance and know not how to retain it. T\e heart must love. It was made to love. / ** The heart, like the tendril, acoostomed to cling. Let it grow where it will, can not flourish alone ; But will lean to the nearest and loveliest thing It can twine with itself and make closely its own." If, then, it must and will exercise its native and inborn ^wers, it is evident that it should be so directed and cul- tivated that its affections shall yield the greatest possible amount of joy, and the least possible amount of misery.
