To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The preacher comes — no pompous priest is he, But one whose life is all, simplicity : His hope to teach the ening soul to kiss The avenging rod, and point the way to bliss. The clerk, who sees his reverence at the door, Now stops the bell which he has toll'd before. Coils up the lengthened roj)e, and ready stands To yield the surplice to the preacher's hands ; A hallowed silence reigns, the priest begins To speak God's pardon for repented sins. Absolves the penitent, and meekly prays For heaven...'s forgiveness of man's ening ways. The man of office next, with elbows squai-ed. 96 LAYS OF THE VILLAGE. Glances above to see that all's prepared ; Then gives aloud, with music on his tongue, Tlie psalm apf»ointed to be said or sung. The pray'rs for morning closed, the preacher next Tnvokes his blessing, and gives forth his text. To puzzle ignorance, j^erhaps averse, (If the plain outline may be told in verse, ) He reasons thus : — Man should be taught to know The blessings which God's bounteous hands bestow : His mighty mandate gave thy organs sight To view the varied beauties of the light : He gave the tender nerve the power to feel.
