To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Indeed every hereditary malady, if traced back, would be 19 found to have originated in the wilful or igno- rant transgression of a sanitary or physiologic law. It is, therefore, sad to reflect that so much human misery and pain should arise from ignorance of a few simple laws, to live in accordance with which is to do the will of the great Creator of those laws ; while to break them, or to live in opposition to them, is to suffer the sharp and inevitable penalty annexed to transgression. If mo...re scientific and rational views, then, of the proximate causes of pain and suffering were more generally held by our religious instructors, an incal- culable amount of good might be done by such a large body of educated men, who have so much intercourse and influence with the poor. But as long as epidemics, as well as other diseases, are looked upon as something supernatural, and a direct visitation of Providence, — and as long as scientific facts, which indisputably prove the contrary, are frowned upon, — the difficulties and obstacles, already sufficiently numerous, which stop the way of im- provement, are greatly added to.
