To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
How are the mighty fallen! Tell it not in Gath, pubhsh it not in the streets of Askelon, lest the daughters of the Phihstines rejoice, lest the daughters of the uncircumcised triiunph. Ye mountains of Gilboa, let there be no dew neither let there be i-ain upon you nor fields of offerings; for there the shield of the mighty is vilely cast away as though he had not been anointed with oil. " And so it is that " One sinner destroyeth much good. " The maddened brute, without understanding, may gore ...with his horn the proudest of human flesh. The mean man, the hardened wretch who has no character to save and is morally incapable of any good, may yet do boundless mischief; he can strike down the righteous, he can vilely cast away the shield of the mighty; by a single act, in a single moment he can cast down the heart of a jubilant people and overspread a great nation with gloom. So fell our Saul as if he had not been chosen of God and anointed with oil. How great the change which has come upon om' dead President !
