To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Devil in you, sir, ay, who doubts it? you may be sure the Devil was in you, and there he is still, and next time he can catch you in the same snare, you will be just the same sot that you say you were before. In short, the Devil is too cunliing for us, and man- ages us his own way ; he governs the vices of men by his own methods ; though every crime will not make a man a devil, yet it must be owned, that every crime puts the criminal, in some measure, into the Devil's power, gives him a title t...o the man, and he treats him magisterially ever after. Some tell us every single man, every individual, has a devil attending him, to execute the orders of the (grand signer) Devil of the whole clan ; that this attending evil angel, for so he is called, sees every step you take, is with you in every action, prompts you to every mischief, and leaves you to do everything that is pernicious to yourself; they also allege, that there is a good spirit which attends him too, which latter is always accessory to everything that we do that is good, and reluctant to evil.
