To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
through the storms and shadows one strong soul of souls sublime, Speaketh: "Cheer ye up, my comrade, in the battle-march of time. Self should be as less than nothing, for it perisheth as grass. But the truths for which we labor from the world will never pass! They will burst the chains of bondage — help the races to uprise. And with Freedom's holy chrism will human- ity baptize! Mourn not, comrade, for the selfish losses that thy life hath known. Weep not for the gauds and baubles thou hadst ho...ped to call thine own; Thine hath been a bright evangel — thou hast held a torch in air 1 24 Hope Lighting on the struggling races from the reahns of dumb despair; Though thy very name shall perish when thy life is overpast, Yet thy words and works forever through the centuries shall last. Ever}^ good thought ever spoken, every grand deed ever done, Is a fresh sword, making surer that our con- quests will be won — Conquest over Superstition, that hath ruled and ruined long. Conquest of the captive peoples over mailed and mitered Wrong In its palaces of splendor and its forts and bulwarks strong!" "Glorious and gifted brother!" thus I sadly spake to him, "Thine a spirit is that soareth o'er the narrow reach and rim Of poor selfhood, and perceiveth what man's better aim should be, But beyond these clouds and charnels my blind spirit cannot see.
