To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The higher form of human wickedness, deliberate and self-conscious, is, as we shall see, not ate but atasthalie. IV. Fate or Doom. The words used in Homer to signify Fate, Doom, and Destiny, are Ker, also in the plural Keres ; Kata- clothes ; Moira ; Aisa ; and Moros. Of these, Ker approaches most frequently to a distinct impersonation j has the faintest trace of any moral element, distinct from the mere machinery of an iron system of decrees ; and is of the darkest colour, as it always implies... doom or death, never a fated blessing. Ker again is the destiny of an individual ; not of law governing the world. It is, however, on no occasion eluded or contravened. The Kataclothes or Spinners are only mentioned in Od. vii. 197. They are personal : and the epithet 'weighty' or 'oppressive' is attached to them. They partake of the character of the Keres. Neither of these touch the great questions, how far destiny overrules the human will, and how far it is separate from, or even superior to, the divine will.
