To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
To this purpose we observe, that, as the soul was made to find her happiness in loving, and her highest happiness in loving God, she was so made, also, in His wondrous beneficence, as to be capable of an inferior but yet a most heart-felt en- joyment in the communications of creatures. In giving Himself to her, God gave her, also, a magnificent endowment out of Himself. "The heaven, even the heavens, are the Lord's : but the earth hath He given to the children of men." — "Thou madest him a litt...le lower than the angels ; thou crownedest him with glory and honor ; thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet." Such was the condition of the soul on the day of its creation ; endowed with a terrestrial paradise, — that is, with every means of worldly gratification, — and this was the occa- sion of its fall. You may wonder, indeed, how this gross, material world could tempt this son and heir of the Eternal ; how the soul, born with the high capacity for union with the Divine, and actually standing in the Divine fellowship, could yield to so base a competitor.
