To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Davenport had certainly produced wonderful effects, and collected a large trib- ute of veneration. He rode, — to use language of a more modern date, — "on the very top wave of the spirit of the age. " More than any other man, he embodied in himself and promoted in others, all the unsafe extravagances into which the revival was running ; and those whose zeal out- ran their knowledge, saw in him, what they proudly hoped soon to become. In admiring the " spirit of the age, " as it appeared in him,... men admired their own spirit, full grown. Such a man could not fail to have a popularity, violent in his favor and vindictive against all opposers. As he went fore- most in the wrong direction which the revival had begun to take, he was regarded by multitudes as its model man, by comparison with whom all others were to be judged. As appears from the concurrent testimony of all parties, his influ- ence, mainly, brought the revival to a crisis. He led it so deeply into such errors, that it ought to stop, and provoked the opposition which brought it to an end.
