To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The spacious house was filled with the candidates for liberty. All was animation and eagerness. A mighty chorus of voices swelled the song of expectation and joy ; and, as they united in prayer, the voice of the leader was drowned in the uni- versal acclamations of thanksgiving and praise, and blessing, and honor, and glory to God, who had come down for their deliver- ance. In such exercises the evemng was spent, until the hour of twelve approached. The missionary then proposed that when the cl...ock on the cathedral should begin to strike, the whole con- gregation should fall upon their knees and receive the boon of freedom in silence. Accordingly, as the loud bell tolled its first note, the crowded assembly prostrated themselves on their knees. All was silence, save the quivering, half-stifled breath of the struggling spirit. The slow notes of the clock fell upon the multitude ; peal on peal, peal on peal, rolled over the prostrate throng, in tones of angels' voices, thrilling among the desolate chords and weary heart-strings.
