To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The prophet might almost have lived in England when the people's property was taken from them, not by an open tax which they could understand, not by an income-tax which they could estimate, but indirectly by a tax upon the necessaries of life, which they pay when buying their tea and sugar, giving 7d. Instead of 3d, paying a tax to monopoly at the very time when they are paying also for bread. It is in these days when the people are paying taxes on whatever they eat, on whatever they drink, an...d on whatever they are clothed in it is to this that the description which I am about to read particularly applies. At a time when a great part of the people are poor, and many men do not know how to keep their heads above water whilst a few are getting enormously rich, because they do not pay their fair share of the burdens of the state to such per- sons the description applies. This is the description : " Now, therefore, thus saith the Lord of Hosts, Consider your ways ; ye have sown much, and bring in little ; ye eat, but ye have not enough ; ye have drunk; but ye are not filled with drink ; ye are clothed, but ye are not warm ; and he that earneth wages earneth them to put them into a bag with holes.
