To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
against unwarrantable seizure shall not be violated ; and that warrants when issued, shall particularly describe the persons or things to be seized. I suggest, then, as the settled conviction of my own mind, that our courts of justice can not rightfully adjudge that a Negro slave is property, because he is not a thing, and property con- sists in things only. That he may be claimed as owing labor or service to another, does not shake, but confirms the argument. If the free States intend to conti...nue free, as it respects negro slavery, and all its concomitant evils, they must not permit that system to take one single step beyond its Constitutional, legal, and present geographical bounda- ries. If it can break one bar of its enclosure, it will be like the unchained lion escaping from his cage — it will make war upon and destroy every obstacle that opposes its onward march. It will be insatiate until all Consti- tutional barriers which may impede its progress shall be broken down and destroyed ; we shall be unable to stay its fury, or appease its rage, or again reduce it to Consti- tutional limits ; and the consequences will be that our entire liberties will be annihilated.
