To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

7*^ cannot be warmed with love to the crucified Saviour. Moral precepts may have great effect in producing an external change of conduct among civilized nations, which are under the salu- tary restraint of laws ; as also, with persons of cool and calcu- lating minds, or feeble passions. But among the Indians there is no government, properly speaking ; the chiefs being com- pelled to exercise personal influence, and power being a thing out of the question. Besides, the Indian will not, in genera...l, restrain his evil desires, especially anger and revenge, unless he sees plainly that it is his interest to do so ; at all other times he turns them loose, and suffers them to do their will. Thus it happens that whilst a converted white man, who is re- strained by law and habit, and by a natural desire of respect and reputation, and who has to combat with weaker desires, may sin hundreds of times in mind, and therefore without the knowledge of others, a converted Indian instantly proceeds to deeds which all may witness.
