To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Here is a law of the United States, not even pretended to be unconstitutional, repealed by the authority of a small majority of the voters of a single State. Here is a provision of the Constitu- tion which is solemnly abrogated by the same authority. On such expositions and reasonings, the ordinance grounds not only an assertion of the right to annul the laws of which it com- plains, but to enforce it by a threat of seceding from the Union if any attempt is made to execute them. This right to s...ecede is deduced from the nature of the Constitu- tion, which they say, is a compact between sovereign States, who have preserved their whole sovereignty, and therefore, are subject to no superior ; that because they made the compact, they can break it, when, in their opinion, it has been departed from by the other States. Fallacious as this course of reasoning is, it enlists State . Pride, and finds advocates in the honest prejudices of those Avho have not studied the nature of our government sufficiently to see the radical error on which it rests.
