To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Religion is divorced also, and that too, alas ! by much of our religious teach- ings, from trade, from labor, from amusement, from so- ciety, from the whole of life. But I have represented this fact strongly in I'egard to office, because I think that religious principles are considered as having less to do with the administration of government than with any other department of life. And I have done so, too, because I believe that these principles are more important in this relation, if possible..., than in any oth- er ; and because I hold also, contrary to the common opinion, that no man is so much bound to reverence an authority above him, as he who is on earth the repre- sentative and image of that authority. I say then that this reverence for God in the seats of power, is especially needful. What else can restrain the powerful but religion ? They are lifted above other men. In proportion as their power is great and their place is honorable, may they stand in selfish pride u and in scornful disregard of other men.
