To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

It is an answer also to those complaints of which I spoke — those grumbling complaints, so unworthy of a true man. How often do you hear it said, how often, too, do you repeat it, — " Oh ! my farm is poor, this New England soil is barren, the West is the only place for farmers !" or, "I am too poor to farm to advantage," or, " ray education was neglected. I cannot go ahead and better my condition, like my neighbor so and so," — or worst of all, " I have no luck, every thing has turned against m...e." All this is false, unspeakably false. These are not the lessons of living, grumble them hourly if you will, sit sulking like a child in the corner, and let the world go by you if you will ; but these are not true ; on the con- trary there is no New England farmer, who reflects, who really 8 docs his otvn thinking, but thanks God daily that bis heritage is given to him here in this cold clime ; on this soil which yields to labor only, rewards labor only. A true man does not grumble because he was not born with a golden spoon in his mouth ; he knows that gold is a soft metal and does not wear well — iron is better.
