To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Such a death is to him many deaths; it ought to cause other deaths ; it ought not to be single and stand alone. He encloses one death then in a thousand ; he loads the earth with some gigantic sepulchral fabric to express the largeness of his loss. He thus grasps with outstretched hand after some object to fill the vacuum within ; he beats the air, and his baulked desire goes off into an immense waste of energy, which pleases him because it is waste ; it is expressive on that very account ; his... grief indulges in all useless things, in vast margins, in excesses, in superfluities, and costly emptiness. Love, grief, and passion, in general being thus liable to excesses, justice, as an appetite and passion, is liable to the same. It tends under excitement to ^imlze objects for itself. And so Oriental justice did. It went out into margins, excesses, superfluous sur- plusses of retribution ; other lives went to this ap- petite over or above that of the criminal, and justice used human beings as a material of expression, as one would employ a look, a gesture, a motion ; it killed a thousand men merely as a mode of tearing the hair, and beating the breast.
