To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The first chapter of Isaiah (indeed a very large portion of the whole book) is poetry in the most emphatic sense ; yet it would be not less irrational than strange to assert that pleasure, and not truth, was the immediate object of the prophet." — BiogrofphAa Litera/riai chap. ziii. ^ See the autobiography edited by Charles Dickens. Old Mortality furnishes us with another example. The Holy Living and Holy Dying, 147 with violets, he is quite at home, and gives a free rein to his poetic imaginat...ion under the inspiration of his awful theme. Its influence on him is also no doubt to be referred to the heathen writers on whom he draws so freely, who were themselves saturated with a sense of the vanity of life, intensified by the absence of anything more than probable conjecture as to the future, which, of course, made death a much more gloomy and impressive subject than where its terrors are balanced by a belief in Resurrection and eternal existence. Their most terse and suggestive maxims, consequently, their most beautiful illustrations, their loftiest moralising, their saddest and most touching reflections, are drawn out in the presence of death.
