To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is a ser^et, yet decisive shock — a brief silence ensues — by the telegraphic thought, the nation is soon conscious of its own decfsion — and the implicit obedience of all parts of the great system completes the work. And there should be an honor and a sacredness upon the balloirbox. It is freedom's noblest emblem. It should be to Republicanism, what the cross is to Christianity, the image of its power. It should, as our national symbol, displace upon our national banner, that ferocious bird... of prey, which, inherited from ancient Rome, betrays the iron Paganism that really larks in our governmental system. And our election process — would to God a holy reverence could be shed around its precincts. Solemn, next to the rites of the church itself, should be these rituals of freedom. The THE MAN-REPUBLIC. 83 ballot-box is the ark of our freedom's covenant-^so should the sur- rounding space be a sanctuary. And the vote, the badge of inde- pendence, and none the less a badge of honor, because it is shared by all, and is so an emblem of equality, ought to be impregnated with its fitting superstition, as a little leaf of a great destiny.
