To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He gradually roused himself, and when consciousness returned, he rubbed his eyes, started from his chair, and exclaimed, "What, have I been asleep ?" " Yes, " was the triumphant reply of his daughter ; and Mrs. Elliott clapped her hands in chorus. The poet, however, was still dubious ; and would have it that he had fallen asleep from exhaustion. In religious matters it is difficult to say what he believed, and what he disbelieved. Like the great mass of literary men, he had no creed, properly s...o called, and no faith in sects or parties. Still he loved Christianity for the human beauty which pervades it, and the divine revelations which it unfolds to man. In one of his letters to a friend, already quoted, he says, " I am a Christian from conviction, and because I cannot help it. " The same friend to whom this letter was written confesses himself much indebted to Elliott for removing his religious doubts, although the method adopted by the poet was strange, and quite alien to orthodox teaching.
