To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They forget that even if the requisite amount of facts and principles could be crowded into the mind of a young man in six months, or even in six weeks, still one essen- tial object of theological education would be unattained; which is casting the whole man, if I may be allowed the expression, into the proper mould for a minister of reli- gion. This includes the correction of bad habits; the formation of new and better ones ; the gradual discipline and ripening of the intellectual powers; mell...owing, soft- ening, and at the same time invigorating the graces of the heart ; bringing down high thoughts of himself; ascertaining his own defects and foibles ; learning the value of gravity, self command, prudence, and Christian dignity; studying human nature and the world; in short, unlearning many things which he had learned amiss, and correcting many erroneous views, and juve- nile propensities, which nothing but time, and suitable associations, accompanied with much observation, watch- fulness, prayer, and conflict can possibly, under God, enable him to accomplish.
