To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Let love to God and man be the polestar of our practical religion. Let there be also a resurrection in this world, — a resurrection from the grave of sin, by repentance and amendment. Let there be some pigeon-hole in the ar- chives of life labelled Benevolence. The Christian religion is a school which has no vacation. 49 Remembered blessings survive only in the heart; and we have no more privileged expe- rience than survivals of this description, in which the visible has passed away^ and there ...is nothing left but the soul of the beloved ob- ject that was once present to the eye. The once visible and present has passed to its resurrection in our breasts. Before, it commingled with the earthly. Now, it has a permanent abode in the heaven of a lov- ing and grateful spirit. Thou who to-day dost laugh, and to-mor- row sigh over the same world, — thou who to- day dost mock at' sin, and to-morrow liest a very slave beneath offended conscience, — thou who to-day doubtest, and to-morrow canst scarce believe that thou didst ever entertain such a doubt, — thou creature of vacillating opinion, thou being of contradictions, thou art.
