To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It would be superfluous, therefore, to enter into a proof of the affirmative. The exist- ing confederation establishes this power in the most ample form. Is the power of raising armies, and equipping fleets neces- sary ? This is involved in the foregoing power. It is involved in the power of self-defence. But was it necessary to give an INDEFINITE POWER of raising TROOPS, as well as providing fleets ; and of maintaining both in PEACE, as well as in WAR ? The answer to these questions has been t...oo far anticipated in another place, to admit an extensive discussion of them in this place. The answer indeed seems to be so obvious and conclu- sive, as scarcely to justify such a discussion in any place. With what colour of propriety, could the force necessary for defence be limited, by those who cannot limit the forOe of offence ? If a federal constitution could chain the ambition, or set bounds to the exertions of all other nations, then indeed might it pru- dently chain the discretion of its own government, and set bounds to the exertions for its own safety.
