To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He lectured and taught personally in Greek, logic, and composition, sometimes in mathematics. He tried to understand and make the acquaintance of every youth in the House ; and like St. Paul, he was all desire to impart any excellent gift. When he felt his strength failing in his work, he gave it up. He had refused bishoprics and an archbishopric; he bade farewell to Christ Church and the world in love unfeigned, and turned his spirit wholly to God whom he desired, and so died full of years and... honours ; nor can we anywhere find a word about him that is not in his praise. Dr. Parr, who professed a not ill-natured hostility to " the iEde-Christians," forgets it heartily and with handsome language when he speaks of the Dean (see Notes to Spital Sermon^ published 1800) — ** Long have I thought and often have I said that the highest station in an ecclesiastical establishment would not be more than an adequate recompense for the person who presides over this College." It is worthily said ; but if the notes are as sonorous as this, what must be the rumble of the text ?
