To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is thus that every individual, liable in his own case to be mis- led or blinded by the partialities of interest and passion, is placed under the observation and guar- dianship of his fellows — who, exempted from his M 2 280 ADAPTATION OF EXTERNAL NATURE TO personal or particular bias, give forth a righteous sentence, and cause it to be heard. A pure moral light is by this means kept up in society, composed of men whose thoughts are ever employed in " ac- cusing or else excusing one another'*... — so that every individual conscience receives an impulse and a direction from sympathy with the consciences around it. We are aware that the love of applause intervenes at this point as a distinct and auxiliary influence. But the primary influence is a moral one. Each man lives under a consciousness of the vigilant and discerning witnesses who are on every side of him j and his conscience, kept on the alert, and kept in accordance with theirs, acts both more powerfully and more purely, than if left to the decay and the self-deception of its own withering solitude.
