To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
While the mind of the savage, left entirely neglected, will scarcely raise him above the level of the animals around him, insensible to all the wonders of cre ation, and shut out from all the treasures of na ture, the more fortunate member of enlightened society, whose capacities shall be evolved by a proper education, will comprehend within the ample range of his intelligence the universe of God. The untutored barbarian, like the beasts which he hunts for subsistence, or from which he dreads d...estruction, acts merely under the guidance of instinct, or from the impulse of appetite, passion, or feeling. A stranger to control, he acknowl edges no law but his own will. Not disciplined to subordination, or trained to reflect on the rela tions of society, and the duties which arise out of these relations, he submits to no superior, but the leader whom he chooses to conduct him to the gratification of his private or national ani mosities; and his wildest desires are indulged without the slightest regard to any future conse quence, or to any feelings or interests but his own.
