To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
What might appear like weak- ness under other conditions was now imperative necessity. He could lead only while appearing to follow. In- flexible adherence to this course com- pelled him to do or forbear much that provoked hostile criticism from the ex- tremists of all views. Denounced on the one hand as afraid to strike at slav- 55 LINCOLN AND SLAVERY ery, and on the other as waging an abo- lition war, he had to keep the peace with Union men of all shades of opin- ion, that they might be held ...together in support of the cause. He had quali- ties that were equal to the task. The anti-slavery radicals scourged him with whips and the pro-slavery party with scorpions, and he submitted in silence and without complaint, serenely confi- dent in his purpose. He had a divine gift of patience, a "saving common sense" that moved by one step at a time, and a courage that could resist his own impulses no less than the cla- mor of factions. With supreme self- control, and a wisdom that seems in- spired, he kept his own counsel and awaited his time.
